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 dawdled a little bit getting out of bed this morning so I only had time for 3 miles at the gym before I had to be back home for Eric to leave. My legs felt fine running, but my quads hurt (from Saturday) getting on and off the treadmill even though I had taken a mess of ibuprofen a couple of hours earlier. 

After Eric got home I went back to the gym for two more miles before having to be back for final presentations for the online class I teach (you know who hates group work more than students? Instructors who have to listen to students complain about how much they hate group work). My quads felt like they had fevers before and after, but running made them feel better.

Way too soon after yummy dinner at CPK. I couldn't get through the first mile without a crazy sideache, so I just hiked on the 15% incline for a mile until Eric came to pick me up from the gym.

Three miles at the gym until it closed, then 5.35 outside until Eric got done at church. Bummer week.
