 Stay healthy!  (My biggest challenge!)

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.

Really bad week of running last week. No real excuse except I was tired and didn't want to.

Threw in some random fartlek today. No rhyme or reason.  Just busting out of f my usual rhythm.  I wonder if I will ever race again?  I haven't really felt the desire.  I have new avenues to channel my extreme competitiveness.  But, occasionally I get a little spark.  
 

I sure do love watching my kids run though!  Today is the district meet for Lily. She has to run against the national champion in her age group (who happens to be her Wolfpack teammate who is crazy fast.  She ran a 10:05 3000 this past summer.  She's in the eighth grade.)  Lily is really running well this fall, though.  And, Cole has region on Wednesday.  Their team should repeat as region champs. We will see if Cole can pull off the individual win.  That would be very cool for a sophomore.

I did a class yesterday. It aggravated my Achilles.  It was definitely not happy today.  Still got through 11 miles.  Hopefully it feels better by Monday
