I started running in 2006 at age 38/39. I figured the best way to kick the smoking habit for good was to sign up for a marathon. (I tend to be alittle extreme)
My first full marathon was the Chicago Marathon 2006 (cold, rainy year) 5:00
Full Marathons: Chicago, Kentucky Derby
Half Marathons: Indy, Chicago Distance Classic (3 times cool medal), Holy Half (Notre Dame), IU's Inaugural, Joker's Wild (St Louis), Oak Brook Half (ugly medal),Valparaiso Mini, Flying Pig, Virginia Beach Rock N Roll Times ranging from 2:30 to 2:00.
Short-Term Running Goals: I really would like to qualify for Boston in 2009.
Personal: I'm married to an incredible guy, Brian for 20 years (21 in May)!! We have an amazing 17 year old (soon to be 18) daughter, Heather. The two are my support system and cheerleaders. Favorite Blogs: |

| a.m. Snuck out the front door to avoid Red seeing me and wanting to go. (or saundering out to follow me a little ways). I wanted to try a new route that I came up with (with the help of activetrainer.com). It was a 11 miles loop, well kinda a figure eight. I knew Red couldnt keep up or be able to make it so I had to be sneaky. The route was incredible. Just enough hills to give it a challenge, hardly any traffic, encountered only one house that had the dogs out. Perfect morning for a run. | | Comments(2) |
