5 K Finish

Running Accomplishments:

I started Runner's World beginning runners program (run 30 min. without stopping in 8 weeks) on Oct. 24, 2011. I was able to run a 5K without stopping 4 1/2 weeks later in 39 min. Soooo slow--but I did it! I've only missed 1 day of running (the day of the BIG WIND) since.

Short-Term Running Goals:

I want to run several 5Ks. I want to be able to run 3 miles in 30 min. I would really like to be able to run a 10K. I want to keep running every day!

Long-Term Running Goals:

I want to keep in shape so I can always keep up with my kids on the hike up to Cleo's Bath on Sonora Pass.

Personal:

I'm married with 7 incredible children. I work at home while keeping very involved in my 2 teenage boys' activities. I have an amazing husband who constantly cheers me on!

slooooooowest.day. ever. I couldn't seem to run more than 100 yds without walking. I don't know what my problem was--except that the route from MACU-home is all uphill (seriously) and that Red Iguana meal from last night made me feel like I was carrying a 50 lb. backpack. Oh well. So happy to have done it, though! I'm doing really well on mileage this week. Next few days will include hikes to Delicate Arch, Landscape Arch and Devil's Garden Campground.
