Short-Term Running Goals:

I've gotten the running bug back and hope I can continue to enjoy it. I think for now, my short-term goal is to NOT burn myself out. I am pro at doing that. I have a half and full marathon that I am planning on racing in a few months. I hope to be trained well enough to PR in both, but if not...I will enjoy the ride.

Long-Term Running Goals:

Under 1:30 half

3:15 marathon

Nothing about today was easy. Started with sore calves and not nearly enough water over the weekend. Met Mignon and Cheris and intended on 12 (missed my longer run on Saturday so this was my longer one). Got to 9 and was DONE...made it to my moms house and drove her car to Mignons. I had NO gas left (in my body that is). I look forward to the day that running a slow paced 12 feels somewhat easy again:/

Stink! Sorry you had such a cruddy long run on Monday. I'm assuming that is why I missed you today. It will come back, keep at it Michelle!

I always have plenty of gas left in my body. Say hi to your mom for me :)
