Personal:

Began running  again in 2009 to maintain my weight.  I happened on to this blog about the same time and have been reading  fairly regularly.  If you've written a race report, I've read it.  Thanks for the insight.

Married 28 incredible years.

4 amazing children: G25, B20, G13,G13.

I can't believe I actually did this today.  When I started out this afternoon I was sure I would only get a couple of miles in before turning around and calling it a day.  My hips were very sore and tight.  I questioned wether or not I should even be doing a long run this week because I was so fatigued and sore.  For the first time in a long time I was worried about injuring myself.

I started out really slow and that's pretty much how the whole run went.  Things felt better after 3-4 miles so I just kept on going.  It was a bit cool at times but being outside instead of on a TM was nice and kept me going.

Couldn't believe how hungry I was when I finished.  Ate everything I could find while taking an ice bath.  Egg sandwich, slice of pizza, apple pie with ice cream (yes...sitting in ice water eating ice cream. I'm still cold).
