Marathon Finish

Running Accomplishments:

I have ran numerous 5k's. The funnest I think was the anywhere anytime race held in IF in January. You only know the day, they text you the time & you don't know the distance until you're done. Super fun! The other one was the cerebrun in PA. It was a 7-10 mile race with obstacle courses & the distance was determined on the path you took which was decided on your answer to crazy questions. I have ran 1 10k & got hurt 2 miles into my 2nd. I am finally back at it after a 6 months hiatus. 

Short-Term Running Goals:

This year I want to do a race each month, building up to complete a few half marathons & at least one marathon in 2016.

Long-Term Running Goals:

My goal is to run as long as my body will tolerate it. 

Personal:

I run to stay sane. I consider my runs my "me time". I am single & the mother of a furbaby who goes on my shorter runs with me, she can make it about 3 miles & she is spent. She's a great running partner.

I realized after my race on Saturday that I need to push myself much harder during training so I've bumped up my speed quiet a bit. Hopefully my asthma & allergies calm down soon.

Today I ran 10 miles, which is the longest distance I've ever ran.  I felt pretty good until the last 1.5 miles. It was cold & windy with lots of hills so I still feel great about it. Ankles & knees really hurt toward the end but nothing an ibuprofen won't fix. I kept around a 9 min mile pace for the first 3-4 miles which was awesome & then the hills started kicking my butt. It's a great run to practice for the teton dam half with all the hills :) I put my weight in today, that was my weight March 1st, I only weigh in once a month. My legs have really changed over the last few months which has been fun to see.
