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 was a tough run.  I cut it short and took a few walking breaks.  I don't want to sound like a complainer so I will just leave it at that.  But, I am still glad I did it and got some good exercise before the day begins!

I wouldn't think you sound like a complainer. You're being smart and healthy--I admire all of your hard work and I know it will pay off big time!

You're doing way more than the vast majority of pregnant women to even get out there and run at all.

And it was a beautiful morning except for the wind.

I think this blog might be a pretty good place to complain.

Michelle,

I am so impressed that you are running and exercising so much through your pregnancy.

You have people here who will listen to your complaints and understand. Feel free to express yourself!

And of course, great job getting out this morning and not being caught in the bed. You win that battle far more often than I do, and I haven't got any excuses.

I don't think I could do what you do, if I was in your shoes. Great job Michelle!
