Personal:

 I have been a runner off and on since I was a kid.  Its something I have always loved and hope to be running until I'm just too old to do it anymore.  I enjoy running some 5ks and halfs each year and try to be consistent with my training.  But I often find it challenging with three kids to get all the miles in that I want to.

I love my kids so much, but running really is my sanity and I enjoy my "me" time.  I may just be forever a "middle of the pack" runner but have hopes of getting faster.

Another nice evening run.   4 mile tempo, felt like hard work.  Walked half a mile to cool down afterwards.  I'm trying to do at least 20 miles a week all through the month of May.  So far I'm meeting my goal, and that makes me happy.  If I can keep the ball rolling I will try for 25 miles a week in June.
