Personal:

Married with 2 lively boys. I love running and I love getting faster. Just trying to figure out how to balance life between being a mother, wife, part time nurse, and runner. :)

When I was in 6th grade I filled out a Getting to Know You sheet. Under nicknames I wrote, "My brothers call me Boo Legs, I think its because I run fast." (It really came from the movie, Strange Brew) And its been my family nickname ever since.

Mile repeats today. 1 mile warm up, 4 mile repeats with 1/2 mile recovery jog in between, 1 mile cool down. Fast miles went like this 6:35, 6:30, 6:28, 6:25. It felt hard but doable.

Afternoon run: 2.5 miles easy.

4.1 miles. Average pace 8:13. That was all I could fit in before an early work meeting. Too bad work has to get in the way of running...

Today was an anniversary of sorts... :) 7 years ago today I went for a lovely early morning fall run. As the sun was rising, I was about 3 miles into a cool, crisp, faster run when the sidewalk jumped out at me...and BAM (no offense Bam) I decided to taste the concrete in a major way. Long story short, I broke my fall with my face and cracked my jaw. My first broken bone. My mouth was wired shut for 6 weeks. I now run with a helmet because my clumsiness certainly hasn't gotten any better.

Running class at the gym. Seriously so stinkin hard. We focused mostly on hills. Had the incline on the treadmill at 10% for about 15 mins of the class. It was a booty burner.

Afternoon shakeout. Easy 2 miles.

7 treadmill miles. Not my favorite but the husband was out fishing so the little man and I "got" to go to the gym and gym daycare for some treadmill miles. Average pace 8:13. Now I "get" to look forward to walking about 6 more miles tonight at work.
