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).

Wow - it really was a whole week that I didn't run. 

The spouse club does a 4-mile run on Friday mornings. I couldn't go last week because they were meeting at 7:00 and I teach my class at 9:00 and there's the hair-drying thing and also I think I gave myself an office hour from 8:00 to 9:00, but this week they met at 6:30. I enjoyed it more than I thought I would. There ended up being about 4 different pace groups, and the fastest one hung out at just over 9 min/mile. The run leader ran back a couple of times to check on people so I went with her once to get a little more distance. I don't know if I'll be able to go every week because usually I like to prepare a little before class, but maybe I'll at least be able to make running buddy friends. Though they won't be as cool as Toby.

NO one is as cool as Toby, that is for sure! But, I'm glad you found some peeps to run with. Always a bonus.
