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!

3.5 on treadmill, 1% incline.  Started slow then laddered between 5.3 & 5.7 mph a couple times (30_30 counts per click), then ramped back down.  No pain, but not much energy either.  Ugh - my weights creeping up #@$%!

Good stretching after running
3 sets of ab crunches and 2 sets of back left lifts
Full shoulder & upper arm strengthening exercises

Suzie for walk

Slow morning run to & from city creek pa4, no hip pain on the down hill which is good.  Did lots of stretching, 3 sets of ab crunches, my upper arm exercises, and took Suzie for a walk.
