Goal Type:

Boston Qualifier

Running Accomplishments:

8 Marathons completed; PR of 3:29.  Hoping to run Boston in next few years if I can ever register before the dang thing fills (have missed the last 2 years because of this).

Short-Term Running Goals:

Hoping to re-qualify for Boston sometime in 2011.  Hoping to hit marathon #10 in 2011.

Long-Term Running Goals:

Run 100 marathons in my lifetime and live to tell the tale.

Personal:

Married.  2 daughters.  Have a love/hate relationship with running.  Hate the first 3 miles of EVERY run without fail and grumble the whole time.  Feel okay during 3-6.  Love 6+ and LOVE how I feel when I am done (like I can take on the world and then some!).

Cross-training day walking up to 12.0 incline, total of 30 minutes. Woke up feeling like crap having gotten the cold Izzy has had all week.  With Scott out of town and both my kids sick--Madie with stomach flu and Izzy with cold/croup, I was bound to catch one of the two and am grateful I got the cold.  Dragged all day then had visiting teachers come at 8:30 and stay until about 10:00, then I puttered around until 11:20 when I finally got on the treadmill and had some nice relaxation time for the day whilst watching BBC's Pride and Prejudice, which has been my viewing for the past several days (I wish there were more 6 mini-series shows like this as running long distances on the treadmill is much less depressing when you don't have to watch 2 or 3 movies).
