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 had to be on campus tonight so after my meeting I went to the indoor track. It was a little stuffy and the men's bathroom was super super poo stinky and I didn't love the banked corners and I wanted to stop after 4 laps, but I kept passing all of those pictures of people who won national championships and thinking about how they probably didn't quit their workouts early. I did 15 laps toward the middle of the lanes in 24:12. The signs said that was 3 miles. It felt like less than that.

I knew I'd be getting more than 4 hours of sleep last night, so I met up with one of the MBA spouses for a little run near campus this morning. It was slower than I would have preferred, but totally worth it to have someone to meet and talk to. For sure I would have kept sleeping if it had just been me. Also being out there made me realize that it's probably totally safe to run around campus in the early mornings by myself.
