Running Accomplishments:

I have only run 2 marathon's in my life.... Grandma's in 2002 and Twin Cities in 2008. I just finished nothing spectacular.... This last year I got the running bug so here we are.... Let's see what happens!

Short-Term Running Goals:

I told myself that I was not going to run anymore Marathon's until I am 50.... Well, that didn't work! I have been talked into signing up for 35th running of Grandma's Marathon on June 18th, 2011... I have had running friends who have qualified for Boston and it has inspired me to see if I could qualify. So I guess we will see how it goes... Wish me luck.....

Long-Term Running Goals:

OK!! Maybe Boston should be my Long-term goal..... hmmm?

Personal:

I am happily Married, with a big dog and no children yet!!!

Just ran a slow 4 mile run with Bridget, John and Josh. It was a sunny 7F out when we ran at 11:30 today.  The trail was good, it looks like they plowed it this morning. The trail was a lot more icy yesterday, so we were loving that part. I took it pretty easy today though, it sure was a chilly day outside. We did this in 37:10 which is ok but pretty slow... I need to pick it up!  Well we will see what tomorrow brings...... 

 Plan to run in the evening tomorrow with the group and the Run Room.... 

 Can't wait!!!

Stay Positive.....

Welcome to the blog. Funny how things change once we catch the bug to run. Good luck your goals this year. This place can really help you achieve them.

Keep up the great work! I'm new to running and it's good to see other MN's on the blog!
