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).

At the gym with Eric after work/school. Alternated .5 walking at 4.0, .5 running at 6.5 (my confidence is shot after Friday night's debacle). We might turn into evening runners this semester. It's harder to fit around eating, but it's easier than waking up at 4:30.

3 miles running, 3 miles walking at 4.0. I was just going to do 3 miles running interspersed with 2 miles running, but Biggest Loser was on and that show makes me want to stay on the treadmill like nothing else.

You know the random pains? At our appointment yesterday the doctor said that if I feel them when I'm running, I should stop running. I'm 92% sure they're GI related, though (and 4% sure I'm making them worse in my mind than they actually are), so I'm trying to work that part out before I really stop running. Except with all the walking I've been doing, haven't I stopped already? I feel like such a poser posting walking miles on here. But it's so depressing to only post the running miles.

One mile running, 3.2 miles walking.
