Personal:
I am married to Brandon, who believes running anything over 3 miles is pointless, but is very supportive of my running anyway. We have 4 children who are 9, 7, 2, and 9 months. I ran cross country in high school and college then took a 5 year break after having my first child. I realized that I missed that being a part of who I was and then started running again and ran my first marathon in 2008. I have run since then other than stopping for 2 more pregnancies. Last year I became running friends with Britta (many of you know her, she introduced me to the blog). She has helped me so much to improve my speed and has taught me so much about running such high milage. I am enjoying the many runs together and the many accomplishments due to the great training. I call her my coach.
5 mile tempo run, at night with Ana and Britta. First two miles we all ran side by side (fun!), Ana got a side cramp and slowed down for a few minutes, I strarted getting tired and fell in directly behind Britta and let her pull me along. We almost go hit by a couple of cars. Mile splits...7:12, 7:16, 7:18, 7:09, 7:10
