I've just run for fun/to get exercise in the past, but recently (I think thanks to Amber Green) I have wanted to become more of a "runner" - with the healthy/active/goal oriented lifestlye.

I would like to run a 10 mile and a half marathon within the next two years.

I am training to run a 10 mile race this October (2015).

Personal:

I'm married to a wonderful man who will also be  my personal coach. We have 4 great kids ages 0-7years.  I love to dance and cook yummy, healhty meals/snacks/treats for my family.

I had very low energy Tuesday evening until yesterday afternoon (about 2 1/2 days).  I'm getting blood work done Tuesday to check my iron and hormone levels.  I was suppose to do this run on Wednesday but there was no way I could have done it.  Today though, this felt really good and strong.  It was hard, but it felt good.  I am starting to feel fatigued again though about an hour after being done.  I'm hoping it's just an Iron issue and that by incorporating more of a balanced diet with meat will help.
