Running Accomplishments:

I was a much better runner in my 20's and 30's.  When I was 52 I had a 28.5 5K and a 58.5 10K, and I would like to surpass those times.

Long-Term Running Goals:

Run a 1/2 marathon.  I would actually love to run a full marathon, but am not sure if my body would break down with injuries training for one.  Update fall 2010: still no 1/2 marathon, but I did run all the way up city creek and back home (14 miles)  - absolutely gorgeous!!

Personal:

My name is Adele Kimbrough - I'm 58 and have been running (off and on) since I was 16.  My body is not well designed for speed, and I'm a bit arthritic, but I'm having fun trying to figure out just how fast I can be.  And this blog helps! 

2011 Deseret News 10K Finish Line.
Dang - missed my goal by 4 seconds!

1.5 mile total mid day run from my car to Alex's graduation ceremony at the Huntsman Center and back to my car (cross country - it was fun, even in my Dansko shoes!)

evening run up to city creek one mile marker and back home.  it was a super nice time to be running, but this run was way harder than it should've been.  :(

2 miles midday, 3 miles early evening. Can't figure this out - I can barely lift my legs to run even though my mileage is WAY lower than it used to be.  And it hurts, why?

cc pa 4 and back, slow pace with painful legs.  The final hill did me in and I had to walk the last 1/2 mile home, it was just too painful to lift my legs enough to run . . .
