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 stayed home from work today and slept in so that I could maybe get over the cold faster. I don't know if it worked, but I'm less tired and I didn't cry at all today. But I had to go to Salt Lake anyway to get the holter monitor (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holter_monitor) to follow up on yesterday's arrhythmia thing. Also to get Eric's birthday present (his birthday's on Friday). 

I was feeling a lot better by the evening (moved from the sore throat stage to the runny nose stage), so I did about 40 minutes on the treadmill walking at various inclines and speeds. I got an oreo milkshake on the way home because of Allie.
