Short-Term Running Goals:

I would like to run an Olympic Trials Qualifier in the marathon.

 Stay healthy!  (My biggest challenge!)

Run my whole life, and then live vicariously through my children. (just kidding) , but I do want to pass on a healthy lifestyle to them.

Help coach East High to a state championship. (hope it doesn't take a lifetime!)

Personal:

I've been running since I was nine.  I'm married to a fellow runner who inspires and supports me.  We have two children:  Cole (4) and Lily (18 mos.)  I help Bill Cobler coach cross country at East High School.

I ran a tempo workout today.  I warmed up for 15 minutes, and then ran 10 minutes at 6:40 pace, with 3 minutes recovery.  Then, I ran 2 x 5 minutes, at 6:30 and 6:20 pace with 2 minutes recovery in between.  To finish, I ran 5 x 1 minute on/off.  I cooled down until I hit 8.5 miles.  Total time: 60:04.

PM:  Teren came home early from work!  (YAAYY!!!) so I went to the club and took a Zumba class.  I felt extra clumsy tonight.

It seems like your workouts are going well Emily.

Congratulations.

Thanks, Rob. It's starting to come back. It's nice to get a bit of running under 7 minute pace. I think it will be a while before I'm back to race pace again.
