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!

"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

My sis from Seattle was in town and she wanted to hike up to Lake Blanche and Lillian up Big Cottonwood.  She cancelled on me because of the storm Sunday night.  She was worried we would get caught in another thunderstorm or stuck hiking in the mud, so we hiked up Little Cottonwood and then Bells.  Trails were fine.

I always want to visit Seattle. You sound very busy, hope you have time to breath!
