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.

Well, thank goodness I finally got my 5 in so this stinkin' busy day can finally end!

2 miles with my boys this afternoon.  Very slow.

2 miles with Holly this evening, followed immediately by 1 alone. 

My arch is a teeny bit sore.  Probably nothing, but I am paranoid from reading about everyone who has had PF.

Hey girls, post if you are doing Moab on the Discussion Forum under Announcements.

When ever I feel anything in my arches I immediatly start grinding into it with a hard ball (I use a little happy ball massager I have that has legs so it is off the ground) You don't want plantar problems.

So I don't know if you have any plans for lodging but we can get a condo that fits 10 people (really 8 but we can squeeze) for 45-65 dollars for two nights. I have done this before and they are nice and inexpensive way to go and unless you have already booked a room they are usually all booked by know. So just let me know that is if all 10 of us are planning on staying together.
