| 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. |

did a long slow run. my foot is sore, but as long as I keep my toe taped and shoe tied tight, I can run. Not running for three days was hard...very hard. so a nice slow run was in order. I didn't push it, just went slow.
did a nice bike ride. felt good to get out, and my legs are sore...first time since the kids went to school that I've been on a bike. since my youngest is in pre school in the AM, I can bike ride and run and work out in the morning! yeah! |

did a quick 4 mile outside run. wanted to do more, but my new shoes were making my toes go numb. so I'm going to re string them, then go for a 6.75 mile bike ride, then when my daughter is napping, I'll do a longer indoor run.
My goals for this winter....: stay in shape! Run outside in the AM four days a week, bike 4 days a week, run indoors 6 days a week. My next race is going to be a very important one. It will be the one year anniversary of my racing schedule. The first race I had ever done! And although I know I can, I want to beat my first time. My first time was 24m 59s. I know I can smash that, but I am still excited and nervous. DH is going to run that one with me too! Excited! | | Add Comment |
