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!

My inner thighs are still tight, but much less sore than yesterday.  Still feel a bit disjointed from the hb riding, but not bad.  Light stretching afterwards.

Still feeling a bit disjointed around the groin area.  (I hope I'm not invited to go horseback riding again this weekend - it was way fun, but disasterous for my running!!).  I had good energy this morning, and quickly got into a tempo pace of 6.1 mph.  Stopped around 4 miles to get some water, but then had trouble with groin area (not reallly painful - just felt slightly disjointed and uncomfortable) when I started to run again.  Decided not to continue the running, and instead walked at 10% to get a bit more exercise.  Light stretching afterwards.  I'm thinking (hoping) I should be back to normal by tomorrow. :)
