Running Accomplishments:

'Just started! -Again!

Short-Term Running Goals:

Increase my energy levels so that I can keep up with my demanding jobs (Mother of Five, Wife of Father of Five, Chef, Housekeeper, Uncertified Phone Counselor, to name a few:). Strengthen my heart and improve my circulation. Grow some muscles! (It's about time!) Run four miles at once... sometime in the next 2 yrs, anyway. :)

Long-Term Running Goals:

I'd like to still have the strength and energy to do things when I'm old. I'd also like to stay in one peice until then!

Personal:

I have been married almost 9 years to Practically-Perfect Jeremy. We have five dear children 7yo and under. I rollerbladed as a teenager. For 18 mo, I walked a few times a week until about a year ago. I tried running w/ wonderful running partner last year, but that tapered off. We had a hard time matching schedules and I wasn't committed enough to do it alone. After an inspiring meeting with Sasha and Sarah, I am recommitted to regular exercise. I may run, or I may fast-walk. The point is to get MOVING, again. Please bear with my pitiful mileage. Supermommy runs all day, and doing that properly is my #1 priority.

I ran with Lybi "over the river and through the woods" from her house to mine.  ...You may be able to tell from the mileage it's not much of a trip, but it actually was a great accomplishment for me.  It seemed so far when Lybi suggested it.  I really feel great that I made it, with only brief breaks to walk.  Lybi is such a great friend.

(I'll pay you later.) Welcome to the BLOG of all BLOGS!

Well, to clarify (now that I have a quieter moment), I must say that running is probably something that I would never have gotten around to on my own. SHOCKING! I know... but it's true. So I just have to give Lybi some credit. She found the one way to make getting started running do-able for me - a personal cheerleader. :)
