Goal Type:

Marathon Finish

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.

WOW!! I can't even imagine 10 hrs of sleep. Great run today. You will be back to 100% in no time!

Sweet night's rest, Lybi. I'm so jealous. My eyes have been burning all day from LACK of sleep last night. I'm sorry to hear about Sparky. Mike told me about it last night. I think you're probably doing the right thing, but that doesn't make it much easier. I know how deeply you love animals. (wow, I just had a whole bunch of memories flood my mind). You'll find another wonderful dog. Remember ... you're the luckiest person in the world! That's how you got him in the first place, right? Hee,hee

So glad to hear you are on the mend. You seem to bear everything so cheerfully! And you have had your share to bear lately. Nice job getting 4 in, you are going to be kicking it soon!

I'm very jealous of your amazing sleep :)

Great job! Glad you are feeling a bit better! I do know what delicious sleep means! (love that adjective) I've been making sleep a priority lately and it rules!

You make that sleep sound better than those brownies you agreed not to eat!! How's the Sasha eating plan working? I say if you run the sub 2, everyone on the blog chips in and we buy you a lifetime supply of brownies!!
