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.

Yeah!!  I met a friend for a run.  She is semi-new to running, and we have run 3-4 miles together in the past.  Well, tonight she wanted to do 6 miles.  She is training for her first marathon.  So, I drove to meet her, we ran to my house, had a quick Gatorade break, and ran back.  The Garmin completely died, so I have no idea what our pace was, but I know it was slower than 10:00.  I don't care, though, because I had not done more than 3 in a LONG time! And we had a great time chatting and catching up!  Doesn't get any better than that...

Running buddies are the key to all happiness! I'm so glad you had a good run with your friend. Onward and upward!
