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. |

| It's getting colder out! It was definitely below 60 on my run tonight. We got about 5 minutes of heavy rain and hail this afternoon, which cooled things off and stirred up the dust. It was still windy when I ran, which created a lot of creepy shadows! I felt good, though. One day at a time... | | Add Comment |

| 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... | | Comments(1) |

Tonight I ran with my same friend from the other night and another friend (guy and girl). We talked about women's issues in the workplace and the perception of crying at work. We made another Gatorade pit stop at my house at mile 3. I accidentally locked my husband out, so he came and found us on the bike, and I gave him my key. Oops!
My Garmin is still dead, so I don't know our pace, but it was definitely faster than the other night. I'm getting blisters again. I hope they go away soon. The weather was perfect. | | Add Comment |

| I used the Garmin for the first time in ages, and it died at 3.56 miles. It's probably a good thing, because I was going so horrifically slow that I'd rather just forget about it. I felt good though. The weather was nice. My blisters are back with a vengeance. Maybe I'll do a 5k this weekend. | | Comments(1) |

I slept in and then ran with my husband for about a mile. Then he went ahead. About the 5k this morning, it was for kids only. I wouldn't have blended in very well, and I probably would have come in last.
Average pace was 10:09. I "hauled" for the last half-mile or so, but was only going at a 9:40 pace. I have my work cut out for me. I'm not going to increase my mileage next week. I'll let my body re-adapt to the mileage. | | Add Comment |
