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!

Woke up at 2 and couldn't get back to sleep so I got up, did some laundry, and ran on TM - wow, it is hard for me to run on 4 hours sleep without coffee!  Bad news is I only ran 3 miles.  Good news is by the time my alarm went off at 5:55 I had run, done two loads of laundry, did some computer work, and had showered and dressed for the day!  Now to get some lunches packed and some cars warmed up - still cold 11 degrees :(

4 on TM - thought I would die of boredom after one mile so started laddering up at the beginning of each song until I got to tempo pace, and then slowly came back down. Changing the pace every couple minutes helped the time pass. 

It's warming up outside - only one handle on my car was frozen stuck today! :)
