Ran Boston in April 2009 and had an absolute blast.

Half Marathon PR 1:35.

10k PR-46:20 (Obviously not a great short distance runner:)

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

Personal:

Married with children. 17,16,14,11 and 7. 3 boys, 2 girls. I have the best husband in the world!

Met the BBK's in Gardner Village and headed north. 1 mile warm up, 5 mile tempo, 1 mile recovery, 5 mile tempo, 2 mile slow. Garmin battery was dead so I just ran comfortably hard. I really have no idea what my pace ended up being. I'd like to say my tempo miles were around 8:00-8:15 average but...

So, notice my serious lack of running? How well do you think SG is going to go? Hopefully I just don't die!

You were kicking some of those paces, especially when you had to stop and wait for like 10 minutes for the slow ones! :) You'll do GREAT at SGM! I have no reservations about that at all!!

You're so fast. Plus you have beaten a time or two on that silly FB game. So, that should make you feel good. BTW, there's an outstanding game that you'll probably win. I sucked.

A sconce is a cool light thingy on the wall. DUH Burt:)

Whatever. I can't believe you beat me twice in a row.
