BOSTON
At the finish
Short-Term Running Goals:
Recovering from micro-fracture surgery on my right knee. I tore the cartilage off of my knee while doing a speed-training run one month before Boston. Doc gave me a cortisone shot so that I was able to finish Boston. After the surgery, I was told to never run again. :(
Long-Term Running Goals:
QUALIFIED FOR BOSTON! April 16, 2011
Ran Boston on April 14, 2012!
Personal:
Married, 40 year old, mother of four.
"In truth, runners don't race other runners. They race against themselves: to conquer their wills, to transcend their weaknesses, to beat back their nightmares. And while a runner can't actually beat himself, he can beat his time. Even years into running, he can get better." Running for His Life by Michael Hall
I was planning on running outside, but my 4 year old thought I was going to run in the basement and was so excited to get down there and play while I run....I ended up running on the tread for him.
Weight: 0.00

Good miles on the Dreadmill. I'm starting to think the treadmill would be a nice break from the heat outside. It's supposed to be 78 and 85% humid at 5:30 in the morning :-(

Six miles on the hamster wheel. You're a good Mom.

You are such a nice mom! Did you watch Teletubbies, too???
You have kind of a fun week with the running and hiking, glad you have missed the lightening and downpour that keeps dropping in!

You're Nice... My tM 'o doom broke just over a year ago.. It was like trying to break a bad habit at first, but now that I'm clean...
