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.

Hey look, I am back!  Not really back, but I had my baby, see?

Danielle Elizabeth Winzenz was born on July 3rd 12:12 am by emergency C-section.

Basically, I started bleeding like a stuck pig so they yanked her out in 5 min. flat to try to save both our lives.  I have definitely felt better, people.  THIS, my dears, is why I can not have a home birth.  I am high risk for this kind of complication--placental abruption.

But it all worked out and I am the happiest woman in the whole world.

Now that I have a daughter, I feel that I have been given every really important thing that my little heart has ever desired.

P.S.  Forgive me, I will not be running for quite a while.  Doctor says "ABSOLUTELY NOT!"  But around six weeks from now WATCH OUT!  I will be hitting the roads (but hopefully not actually hitting the roads, as I am prone to doing (chi style, remember?)
