Half-marathon: 1:41:41, 8/28/2010 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). Favorite Blogs: |

| | On the treadmill at the gym. I've never been into the Bachelor/Bachelorette shows, but somehow the new one makes the treadmill time go quickly. Alternated .5 walking at 4, .5 running at 6.5. I figured out the GI stuff (for now), so I think that was what was causing the random pains, but I still get some weird tightness. The Internet makes it sound like it's the fake contractions, and it seems like it's normal and stuff, even at 18 weeks, but it's unnerving. I'm thinking about switching to swimming and cycling. But I don't want to be a swimmer or a cyclist...

Walking on the treadmill at the gym. 2.5 miles at the 8.0 incline, then .5 at 10.0 incline. I caught the last 30-40 minutes of Biggest Loser. It's so crazy to think about losing 12 pounds in a week.

| | Just a mile walking at the 12 incline. I got to see a little bit of that Live to Dance show, though. |

Nada. (I wrote it in Spanish because I'm working on a Spanish survey at work, so I'm practicing. I only know a few words. (Someone else is doing the translating.))

Good luck to everyone who's racing today! Yesterday I noticed the tops of my thighs touching, so I have a renewed commitment to work harder at whatever feels like a good idea. 30 minutes on the bike (I was still in bed for the 8:00 spin class), 30 minutes on the treadmill walking at 15%. I had to remember to keep pushing on the bike (it helped to watch the cadence thing), but overall I think it was an okay workout.
