Boston Qualifier

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!!!

Total Distance

Well, with the windchill today it was about -18 below but I did not let it stop us from running. We ran Swede Hallow and then over and around the capital. That wind was brutal in some parts but with the sun out it sure made it better.... It was a nice run thanks Amanda and Bridget for joining me and showing Mr Cold that he has nothing on us..... We rock, way to go!!! 

It took us 41:30 to run this route....

 take that Cold air.....
