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
Ran 5 in 44 minutes...haha! Pathetic, I know! It was tough too! Rode bike for 20 and elliptical for 20. I did a kickboxing class yesterday morning and it kicked my trash! My body is so sore...I LOVE IT!
Weight: 0.00

Hey! NICE miles and pretty good pace in my book! GOOD xtrain workouts too! :) I can just picture you loving the endorphinic-soreness! :)

5 at 8:30 is definitely not pathetic, very good in fact. Glad you are going again.

I'm thinking that kick-boxing would come in handy if you're in a race and your competition is trying to pass you :-) Good running and good to see you doing some cross-training.

that is great! glad to see you back at it. don't worry about pace -- it will come back naturally with time (and it won't take long!)
