Goal Type:

Marathon Finish

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.

Today I did a plyometrics workout from P90X.   I still have really low energy.  I have decided not to run tomorrow and take a two day weekend to rest up a bit.  I can't remember the last time I skipped a Saturday run, it feels strange because Saturdays are the days I do a longer run.  Hopefully I will feel good and rested on Monday.

I think you'll feel great on Monday.

I talked to Carly this morning and she's up for 8 miles on the trail tomorrow. I'll check with the others and see if they want to meet up. We'll miss you. I think you're the glue that holds our little running group together. I'll try to be the scotch tape in your absence tomorrow.

Sorry your energy is gone, I hope you can get some decent sleep and rest to be back on your game on Monday! 'Normal' Saturdays are strange after you're used to the early long runs - but you'll enjoy it after you get past feeling bad for not running :) After a couple weeks it gets hard to get back into it! I'm sure you won't miss as many as I did.

It's good you were able to listen to your body and let yourself rest. I hope your body is back in fighting shape Monday morning.
