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.

Ugh.  I am still sick.  But, the Dave Matthews concert was awesome!  I know if I could have some down time I would feel better.  But that's just not an option with my work schedule this week.  I haven't been able to sleep, either.

When it rains, it pours.  As if being sick for several days isn't bad enough, we got in a car wreck yesterday!  We got rear-ended pretty hard, but there was no damage to our car, amazingly!  my neck is a little stiff today, but that's it.  I just have to laugh about it now.

St. George seems to be more and more of a pipe dream now.  I'll have to reassess after I get over this sickness.  Blah...

STILL SICK!!!!  Arrgghhhh.....

Good news, though: I am able to sleep in.  I slept in today, which helped.  Also, I got some big work commitments moved, so it cuts down on my workload for the week.

Can anyone spare me some extra miles for St. George?  :-)
