Personal:

I've been running since high school (mid-1990s) and do pretty well when I'm focused on a goal. My main problem  is running consistently when I'm NOT training for something specific. I'm an attorney, and I've been married to my husband, also a runner, for 5 1/2 years. We live in Phoenix, Arizona.  We had a beautiful baby girl, Caroline, in August 2009.

I ran tonight after work, with the headlamp again.  I ran faster tonight, maybe because I didn't want to run in the dark longer than I had to.  Or maybe because I wanted to make sure I would get home in time for Grey's Anatomy (I did).  Anyway, my average pace was 9:44, and it varied from 9:24 to 9:55.  Heart rate was up, but I felt good.

It was a good run overall, but I need to be consistent!!!

We have a new addition to the blog, my friend lorenzpsu.  She is a triathlete.  Tell her hello!

Great job, Shauna! I tried to tell your friend hello, but her blog is completely blank when I try to visit. Is it just me or has she not entered anything yet?

Oops! I guess she hasn't filled in anything yet! She's been cycling a lot this week.
