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 8 in 1:06 on dead legs. 8:25mm.  I was going to run on the treadmill because it is snowing today, but my mom called and wanted me to come over for a visit so that she could see her youngest grandchild....Jake.  He had so much fun that when I had to take him to pre-school he asked if he could come back to grandmas because he just loves it there.  So cute!  It made my mom and dad feel good.  

 Now to de-Valentine and St. Patrickize!  :)

Blogging on my phone again. Tough run today. My legs didn't want to cooperate. Didn't have anything but water on the run and I am paying for it now! Not feeling so hot! Downtown waiting for the ballet to start again. Closing night is tomorrow! :) :) :)
