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.

I've been getting really good sleep since I've been sick. My fever is gone, my energy is returning, but there is still a lot of gunk in my lungs. I left church early today because I couldn't stop coughing like I was trying to bring up a hairball. Next week will be better.

I'm sorry to see that you are sick Lybi. Hope you feel better soon. Tell James Hi.. Steve.

PS-The training session with my new client went really well, better than I expected even. Thanks..

Hope you feel better soon, and that you get back at it! (However good sleep is sounds soooo worth the time off!)

I'm sure you were faking just so you could go home early! (hee,hee - sisters are allowed to be snotty, right?) I'm sorry you're still sick, Lybi!! It seems like it's been one thing after another. The cosmos are conspiring against your desire to run a 1/2 marathon. Give up - come run the 5K with me and Kristina on Easter weekend. ;o) Luv you!!

P.S. Don't give up!! You're too amazing!!!

I agree with Laura...it seems like you have been hit by one thing after another! Glad you have such a great attitude. Thanks for putting up with my hubby for a few hours. Hopefully you are feeling great in no time!

Hey! I'm doing all right. It's just a cold and a little bit of a sore knee for goodness sakes. Also you should know that OCCASIONALLY I exaggerate...slightly, a little bit...once in a while...totally, all the time.
