Running Accomplishments:

Once beat Cheryl at the Hobble Creek Half Marathon about three years ago, and kept up with Peggy for 100m four years ago. Completion of 52 marathons to date.

I enjoy the marathon distance. It demands consistency in training and provides a constant goal to work towards. Could not run without the support of my great family and friends. 

Short-Term Running Goals:

Stay healthy would be the number one goal. To accomplish this long-term feat I need to cross-train and add strength training into the mix.

Long-Term Running Goals:

Someday I would like to qualify for Boston although at the moment it seems very tough!

Personal:

Love running, music, art, food, friends and family in no particular order it just depends on the day.

Great morning for a run. Met the running group for a series of 5Ks this morning. I believe they were doing four repeats but I chose to do 2 because of this weekend. I decided to go all out on one of the series and tried to keep in stride with Cheris which ended up being between 8 - 8:30 minute miles which was a great pace. Ran the second with Debbie and kept a steady pace which felt comfortably hard. It was great to see Alan, haven't seen him in a while. I would love to be able to keep that pace all the time. I am so excited for the marathon this weekend and anticipating St. George coming up in a few weeks. Everyone in the group has been working so hard and it will be awesome to see what they will accomplish with their hard work and tenacity. 

Bring it on!
