Short-Term Running Goals:

Now that I'm (almost for sure) done having all the babies, I'm working on building consistency and seeing how fast I can get in my old age. ;)

Long-Term Running Goals:

I'd like to be a healthy and relatively injury-free runner for the rest of my life.  

Personal:

I'm married to Eric (Faceless Ghost on the blog) and we have very active daughters and one dog. I have a PhD in sociology and demography, and I'm incredibly grateful to have work that is meaningful and that builds on my academic experience. I run because it makes me feel strong and it helps to keep the crazy away (there is a long history of abuse and mental illness in my extended family).

With Melody's speedy crew again. 7:42 for all, so a bit faster than last time. I'm excited for when that's a fun, easy pace for me. I'm definitely not there yet, but these little jaunts into the land of faster runners have made it seem like a more realistic (though maybe distant) goal. 

Later - went to the gym with Eric to do arms and abs.

Not as distant as it may seem :)

Definitely realistic!

all of the above -- not as distant and definitely realistic!

I'm all over that!

And Melody should come too if she wants!

I can't this Saturday, but I think I'd be up for about 10 miles the next Saturday.

You know what would be fun? If people posted group FRB runs by area on the discussion forum or something.

From allie on Tue, Oct 12, 2010 at 23:10:37 from 174.23.232.22

that is a really good idea. i am always looking for people to run with, especially on saturdays. :)

next saturday works great for me.

Next Saturday works for me as well.
