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.

200m hill repeats and then 200m track repeats.  Paces are right on, but I am tired afterwards.  Too long since I did a track workout!

Four hours of skate skiing with a friend just North of Vancouver.  Cypress Mountain has beautiful trails, and they are all open!  Even the upper, more challenging trails are open, and we had a blast!

No running today, just yoga and a lot of drills and dynamic stretching.

Track workout with lots of R and I paced intervals.  My favorite!  WU, with jogging and dynamic stretches, 2 miles with sprints on the straightaways.  Then 2X800 at 7 minute pace.  Then 6X200 at 45-48 seconds each!  Speedwork is feeling SOOO good!
