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.

Tonight I ran an entire run with my husband!  We haven't done that in quite a while.  He had the watch but accidentally reset it during the run, so we don't know our time.  That's fine with me, though-it's nice to do a run without worrying about time every once in a while.  Today was kind of cloudy and yucky, but once it got dark, it was beautiful!  It felt very much like October!

I'm getting up early tomorrow morning!!!!!  I'm announcing this publicly, so I HAVE to do it!

I'll hold you to it if you hold me to it! I think my hopes of staying awake for the Bachelor are quickly fading...
