I have fun every time I run, and have recently overcome the "I can't go fast anymore" hurdle.  I'm having fun going faster and working towards becoming even faster.  

I have raised two running children, one competitive and one not.

I have learned to run in ice and snow and I don't complain. 

Short-Term Running Goals:

Work towards a faster marathon by Spring 2012.

Get my 5K down to 21:30. 

Place in my division at duathlon and triathlon.

Train for biathlon.



 




 

Long-Term Running Goals:

Joining Forrest Gump


 

Personal:

I'm a 52 year old mom of two ex homeschooled teenagers. They both think I'm nuts.

Still camping.  Still a terrible place to run.  Did the three easy miles with my daughter; her job was to tell me to slow down all the time.  It worked well, and our average was 9:54!  Looking forward to getting back to my trails; I'm really appreciating the beautiful running venues that I have at home!

your camp running sounds like my regular running. On roads with only shoulders (no sidewalks). i have been trying to run in subdivisions but I tend to run slower to look at how ridiculously huge some of the houses are!
