| Location: Ypsilanti,MI,United States Member Since: Dec 13, 2008 Gender: Female Goal Type: Marathon Finish Running Accomplishments: I started running last year, my first race was December 2008. It was my first 5k. In the past year I have done 5k's, a 5 miler, 10k, 10 miler and my first half marathon. I started running so I could keep off the weight I had lost (70 pounds). And in running, I have found solace, peace, and friendships. Short-Term Running Goals: My goals for 2010 are:
*2150 total miles
*finish a walking/jogging marathon
*a 2 hour half marathon Long-Term Running Goals: I want to take each year as it comes.
2009 goal was just to run. I did make the goal of 2000 miles. It was my first year running. I will update my total on the 31st of January.
Personal: This past year has been frought with difficulty, trials, and stress. But it has also been a blessing. I learned what I can do, what my body can do, and how to make myself what I want to be.
My three kids have been a wonderful inspiration, and my husband, not matter how we fuss, fit or fight, is ultimately my best friend. |

changed my routine. i'm now going to be running 5 miles in the morning (either inclines,speed or sprints) and alternate upper and lower body weights. then in the late morning, do my second set of weights, then another 5 mile run.
If anyone has a cure to constant hunger...let me know. cause I am always hungry. morning, noon, night...I'm always hungry. I eat, alot, but it isn't junk food. but I am always hungry! LOL!
i was on my second 5 mile run when i cramped up and had to walk a half mile. oh pooh. but i ran the last half mile home. so 9.5 miles for the day isn't too bad! | | Comments(1) |

| | did a nice and slow 5 mile run on the treadmill today. inclines and speed. felt good! did some lower body weights, but quit early when one of the guys at the gym started staring at me. made me very uncomfortable and my husband was not too pleased either! | | Add Comment |
