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.

First run in Paris! Warm and very humid here. Morning runs for this first week are short and speed work; pm runs are up to 75 minutes. This morning I just gradually accelerated to tempo pace , hung there for a mile, then jogged back to the apt. I went to the Eiffel tower along the water and back.

Pm 7.92 easy. Finished late and had a very late dinner.
