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!

Dang - missed my goal by 4 seconds!

Short early morning run to city creek pa 4 and back home.  It was nice and cool with a cloud cover.  It felt good to get out running again, but I was sweating way more than I should have been (still sweating out those nasty virus germs I'm sure . . .).  Legs felt nice and rested, but my head was pounding on the final hills towards home.  I'll try for short easy runs the next few days before trying to ramp my volume back up.

heyho, the city creek drinking fountain is finally turned on! :)

Short run to city creek picnic area 5 and back home.  Got pretty warm on the way home. (still seem to be running hotter than I should based on the outside temps).

Ran up to city creek one mile marker and back home.  high noon - hot, sunny, breezy, and hilly.   (If Burt can do it, so can I!)     :)

nice morning run to city creek one mile marker and back home.  finally felt like pushing the pace a bit - based on breathing it was a good tempo effort so I'll put one mile faster running.  very very very nice cloud cover this morning!   :)
