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.

1710 calories for the day.

Ran 1.2 miles

Did "Cardio X" with James.

Begged God for patience with my children approximately a bajillion times. 

Feels good to get enough calories.  I think that the reason I didn't succeed when I was dieting all on my own is that I don't get enough calories, which leaves one suseptible to falling off the food plan!

P.S. Long live oatmeal, the most filling and long-lasting food on the planet.

Good job Lybi! the nutrition guy sounds interesting ... mums the word (regarding not telling Sasha). I like oatmeal too.

I added a banana to my oatmeal this morning.

Thanks Bonnie! How is Arizona treating you?

Burt, try peanut butter. Yummmmmm. Plus the protein/fat makes it even MORE filling.
