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!

4 miles to PA4 in City Creek with Evy.  Okay, I can finally run again - pulled hamstring/butt muscle seemed fine, the sprained ankle was fine, the rather bad food poisoning (or whatever I had last week) made me feel a bit queasy when I started running,  but I generally felt okay once I got going.  I think I was pretty slow, but Evy kept me going at a pace where I was breathing pretty hard the whole time, so that was good.  Did some nice stretching afterwards.  Sure felt good to be running again, and I'm cautiously hoping my string of bad luck is at an end!

4 slow and easy miles to PA4 in city creek canyon and back.  About 10 minutes much needed stretching afterwards.
