Short-Term Running Goals:

Recovering from micro-fracture surgery on my right knee.  I tore the cartilage off of my knee while doing a speed-training run one month before Boston.  Doc gave me a cortisone shot so that I was able to finish Boston.  After the surgery, I was told to never run again. :(

Long-Term Running Goals:

QUALIFIED FOR BOSTON! April 16, 2011 

Ran Boston on April 14, 2012! 

Personal:

 

Married, 40 year old, mother of four. 

 

"In truth, runners don't race other runners.  They race against themselves: to conquer their wills, to transcend their weaknesses, to beat back their nightmares.  And while a runner can't actually beat himself, he can beat his time. Even years into running, he can get better." Running for His Life by Michael Hall

Trying to figure out how to update my miles on a phone!! Ran with my nephew. We had such a fun run. 13.1 in 1:47. We made pretty good time and laughed through most of it. At the ballet and can hardly wait to see my sweetie. My hub and I have been actually able to have a hot date tonight.... It a miracle!!! We walked around the temple waiting for Bambara to open. Swordfish and bison for dinner. Great, great day!!

Totally not related to running, but you have some really white teeth. Mine look so um..... canary yellow compared to them. Ha ha.... white strips here I come!

Before I got married, I paid the dentist for molds of my teeth and the whitening agent that you put in the molds. After one month....I looked ridiculous! haha! EVERYONE commented on my teeth and it was embarrassing. They were fluorescent white and glowed!! ha! I use Crest white strips every once in a while now. Can't wait to see your pearly whites Derunzo!!
