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!
Ran from my house up to PA 7 in city creek canyon and back home. Nice and cool in the canyon, but it was way hot running back up to my house!
Weight: 0.00

Looking good! You have been putting in consistent mileage lately. One of these days I will experience running up and down a canyon!

Why is the weather always the worst when you're coming home and tired (headwind, heat, etc)? Hopefully the scenery there makes it enjoyable anyway.
