Running Accomplishments:

Prs:

1 mile: 6:31

5K: 23:37

Half Marathon: 2:04

My first post-high school 5K, in which I thought I was going to die

The first time I won my age division. Yippee!

My first half marathon, in which I attack Sasha

The time I beat my high school PR for the 5K (as a 31 year-old mommy of 3!)

My first 5K barefooted

Short-Term Running Goals:

I'm just getting back into running after a long break to have my last child. I would like to race some 10Ks, a half, and a marathon in the next 2 years.

Long-Term Running Goals:

Be the oldest woman to complete a marathon. Yea! But hopefully I will also complete some BEFORE I geezer up, like, before I'm 40 for sure. I think it would be fun to dress up really strange for marathons, like impersonating celebrities and stuff. Except I don't really like celebrities, as a rule, so maybe I'll have to stick to the age old question of ninja, or pirate. I say ninja. *Hyah!*

Personal:

I am happily married to James W (Cool Runnings). We have 3 boys and 1 opinionated little girl. I love reading and I'm also a news junkie. I am a stinker.

1 Mile with Holly this morning. She did a great job! A new mile record for her at 11:59. She is a really busy chica, and is going really really gradually with the running--just 1 mile 2X a week, but that is still infinitely better than doing nothing.

I'm going to shoot for 3 miles by the end of the day. 4 Tomorrow, and 5 the rest of the week. I should be all back to normal by Saturday--so I can run with Mik'L and (hopefully) Shauna without the lovely injury paranoia I have right now.

PM--2 miles mostly with my oldest little boy, who keeps me at a very controlled pace.

Hey, I have a really cute picture of Mik'L and Michelle I was going to try to put in my blog today, but I can't figure out how to do it. A little help...

Hey Lybi- Wish I could help you post your pictures- but as you can tell by my cruddy pic on my blog- I'm no expert!! Hope your leg is feeling better? That's great that Holly is getting out there. Does she have a blog? My sister & her should chat- my sister is having trouble finding time to get out but I've been encouraging her to just do a couple miles a week...

Not that you need to post a pic of me, but you have to post the pic somewhere on the web (I use Shutterfly.com) and then right click the picture, hit properties, and copy the URL. Then when you are editing your blog hit the little picture icon and paste the URL of the picture in the box that pops up and that should do it! (At least that's the only way I've figured it out!)
