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.

I did actually run today and had a successful run!  I felt great and pretty confident.  Usually during my run I might see 2-3 other runners out but this morning I saw about 10!  I guess the lighter warmer mornings has people recommitting to exercise.  It is fun to see more people out.

When I got home my son was awake and needed a million things from me and then the day got busy and I didn't sit at the computer once until now(5:00 p.m.)  That is abnormal for me but I did get a ton done today.  My house is clean, I painted my daughter's dresser white, bought garden suppplies, did visiting teaching, a little grocery shopping, and tonight we are watching some of our friends kids and planting our garden.  I am looking forward to 8:30 when the kids are all in bed, babysitting is done, and my husband and I can sit and watch TV.  That is mostly the only time I sit down for an extended time, I am pretty tired by the end of the day.
