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.

3 miles alone at 10 pace, 1.5 with my 7 year-old at 11 pace.

This is my friend D'Net. She is a piano-teaching goddess. Last night we went out for some girl time.

Lettuce wraps ala Cheesecake factory...trying to find stuff without white flour or white sugar.

Creativity gone awry. I can't be trusted with purple cabbage...especially when I've been drinking (water with lemon, of course).

I did NOT eat the bread sticks.

But we put them to good use. Isn't she cute?

Hilarious! I love it!

Good run. I love that you take your boys running with you. I hope someday Melanie will enjoy running with me.

what a fun week! some good runs with the boys and what a blast at cheesecake factory (love that place) how in the world did you stay so self disciplined around all that temptation? (btw Samuri 21 is a Japanese restaurant- based on the progress on my goals I WON'T be going there anytime soon- LOL)
