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).

I was planning on 8, but then I figured there was no reason I couldn't do 2 more. 9:05 for the first, 9:13 until the last half mile, then 7:30 for the last half. It was a little painful at the end because I haven't run that far at once for awhile, but the pace was nice and easy so that helped. Though maybe it wouldn't have hurt at all if I had finished sooner? I don't know.

Great job this week :)

Nice mileage! Get one of those body pillows. They are a major lifesaver, although Eric may not like the extra barrier between you two :)

I'm thinking about it. So far I'm using 4-5 pillows I already have, and I think that helps.
