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!

2 short miles with Evy and Suzie, a little past the salt sheds & back.  First day running this year for Evy and me; she is finally recovering from her surgery, and me, well, the scales don't say I've gained any weight after my month off from running, but I'm pretty sure a whole bunch of my muscle has turned to flab!!   Oh, and yea!!! My truck is finally funning again!!!

Missed the bus afterward work and decided to walk/run home.  Smoggy dirty air, with yucky car exhaust and slick sidewalks in places.  My ears were cold, I was wearing dress slack & dansco shoes & heavy coat.  Whew! Was hard because I'm out of shape and it was uphill, but I'm glad I did it. :)

Ran up to the city creek 1 mile marker and back. Boy, my legs feel like real clunkers, that's what I get for not running regularly.  I'm sure if I can run regularly for a couple weeks my gait will feel a lot smoother.  Glad I got out even if it was pretty smoggy; I could taste it, but didn't really want to run inside on the TM.  (Actually the TM is buried under a couple other items right now . . . will have to remedy that. . . )
