BOSTON
At the finish
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
I was thinking this surgery would be a no biggie....I guess surgery is still surgery and not so easy on the body. It is pretty tough to stay off of your feet with 4 kids.
This is driving me crazy!
