I PR'd!!!! I was the 5th woman over all. There were about 80 runners. I didn't feel real great. And about 1/2 way through I was asking myself why I keep doing this to myself. When I started I thought I would just run my pace and enjoy the day. Nope, that competitive feeling kicks in and it's all over. It paid off since I took over a minute off my time. :)

Hi! I just thought I'd pop in and "meet" a new friend.

Congratulations on your PR and 2nd in age!

I see you want to BQ. Do you have a marathon planned? I also would like to BQ someday. I have ran 2 marathons but my knees have stopped me from qualifying each time.

Hi Kim,

Nice to "meet" you.

I was going to try and qualify at the Fargo Marathon in May. But training last winter did not go well. I was on the treadmill most of the winter and when I was outside I was battling ice and snow and wind and everything nasty living in the northland can toss at you. So I dropped down to the half. Now my husband and I are signed up for the Twin Cities Marathon on Oct. 3. Training in the summer is soooo nice. I know how injuries go. My husband is struggling with hamstring problems right now. It is very frustrating.
