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!
Late morning run to city creek picnic area 12 and back. Whew - it was HOT running home!

Sorry about the hot weather. Sounds dreadful.

Burt, you should know that I am a real pansy and just like to complain sometimes! Compared to the hot weather you must experience I should really count my blessings! (PS: if I weren't such a time waster I'd get out running earlier than I do . . . )
