Help to inspire others to get fit and be consistent in their training.....Continue to love running and stay injury free while I rack up the miles....

Personal:

I have been married for almost 20 years.... Dave is the only man that I think that was placed specifically on this earth to tolerate my crazy ways.

I have 2 boys - ages 9 yrs. and 18 yrs. old (senior in high schoold and known on this blog as "Ironman"- they are fabulous kids - I am very blessed!!!

I am an RN and have been for around 12 years.

I lift weights regularly and work abs 2-3 days a week.  I enjoy the beach, like to sing, and love to run!!!

Quit smoking about 4 years ago and couldn't run 1/4 way around a track when I began... started with elliptical and then got into running more seriously.  Cranked up the mileage and intensity when I began training for my first 1/2 marathon.  The rest is history.... or history in the making!?

5 brisk walking miles on the tredmill with handheld weights.  I am still having some soreness in my calfs and it just didn't feel right to run today. Hope that tomorrow I will be better.

3 miles aroung the neihborhood.  Totally tuckered today plus I didnt have time to run longer since I had to be at orientation for work this morning at 10am.  Its just as well. Plan to do some speed work tomorrow so I need to have some snap in these legs of mine.

3 x 1 mile repeats at 7:30 pace with 1/2 mile recoveries for a total of 7 miles.  It was hard but I could have run a little faster.
