Running Accomplishments:

I have run 5K throughout my life.  I just ran the Colder Boulder in 25:33 which is a PR for me.

I ran two half marathons this past summer and my fastest time was around 2:09:? (My chip had issues and I was given a gun time but not a chip time, but I know I finished under 2:10:00)

Short-Term Running Goals:

I want to run a marathon during the summer of 2010.

Long-Term Running Goals:

Keep running for fitness and fun.  I would like to improve my pace to comfortably average 30 seconds faster then I run now.

Personal:

I am married and have three children.  I enjoy friends, piano, singing, crafting, and organizing/cleaning my home.

Total Distance
4.20

I wasn't planning on running this morning because I had some earlier meetings and I wanted to sleep in after driving home on Friday and just relax a bit.  However, I woke up earlier than I wanted so I decided why not go run a quick 4 miles.  Well, they weren't really quick miles but that OK.  It was a nice run.

Two weeks ago I wrote about my ankles hurting when I ran for the first couple of miles.  When I was in Utah, I had no pain while running but when I ran today my ankles hurt again.  I don't know if it is because there are more hills, elevation difference, or maybe because there is more concrete here instead of pavement.  I wish my ankles didn't hurt and I hope it doesn't continue.

I don't have a garmin so I think I added about .2 to my normal 4 mile run.  I wanted to even the week out and not be left with a .8 in my total.

I'm sorry your ankles are bothering you again. I don't know what to tell you.

Look at you with 26 miles last week. Great job.

Oh, an welcome home. It's nice to have you back.

Good to see you back. Hopefully the ankle problem is nothing serious.
