Goal Type:

Boston Qualifier

Running Accomplishments:

6 marathons- Chicago 2001 (3:57...my goal was 5:00!), Chicago 2002, Venice Italy 2003, Okinawa Japan 2007, Okinawa 2008, Gold Coast Australia 2008

Plenty of half marathons, 10ks, 5ks, etc. Some PRs, some age group awards. 

My most significant & defining running accomplishment was being named "Most Dedicated Runner" every season that I competed on my high school cross country team. A decade later, I still try to live up to that award!

Short-Term Running Goals:

Get closer to my marathon PR and eventually bust it!

Be more competitive (in time and in spirit) in shorter races. 

Run a marathon before June 2009.

Run another marathon before Jan 2010.

Run at least 4 days a week.

Long-Term Running Goals:

Boston Qualifier...even if it takes me til I'm 80! 

"Run" a triathlon.


Personal:

Married, no kids (other than the 17-20 in my classroom!)

I'm a military wife.

My first run since last Saturday...seems I'm only motivated when I know a few people from my Saturday running group will be there to meet me. Hoping this blog will serve as additional motivation! One girl at group was really pushing the pace. At first I was secretly irritated (I had been hoping for a lazy run!) but after a while, I was glad she pushed me. 2 big uphills on this route, and we ended up finishing in 1:00:25.

We ran 6 miles, all on base (Kadena Air Base). Although I won't be running here for much longer, I figure I should write down what the loop was so I can repeat it if needed in the next few weeks. From the Risner up Douglas to Kuter, turn onto Molland before reaching Gate 2. Turn back onto Douglas at Gate 3. Need to tack on a little extra to make it 6, so instead of heading straight back to the Risner, turned up Schreiber, through 1 stoplight and into the Jennings housing area. Rhonda & Mike's old street (Dillwin?) marks 6. We just walked across the back parking lot to get back to our meeting place.

 My next goal will be to get out and run on Monday!
