Running Accomplishments:

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.

Short-Term Running Goals:

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

Long-Term Running Goals:

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.

Progression Run.  Outside.

5 min WU, 20 min easy pace (9:14-10:14), 10 min between 7:14-7:34, 5 min CD.

TOTAL: 41:42 at an 8:06 AVG. This run felt really good!  I really liked progressing.  I am proud of myself for accomplishing the quick part.  I was definitely tired by the end of the 10 minutes, but I am faster than I give myself credit for and I am starting to push myself more, which feels good!

Long Easy Run.

5 min WU, 1 hour run (9:14-10:14), add another 30 min (9:14-10:14), 5 min CD.

8:46, 8:52, 8:19, 8:45, 8:31, 8:48, 8:28 (.94 mile) - 1 hour run

8:41, 8:25, 8:12, 8:20 (.56 mile) - 30 min run

8:28 CD

TOTAL: 1:40:00 at an 8:35 AVG.  This felt good.  My HR felt great the whole time, just my legs were getting tired towards the end, but not as bad as a few months ago.  an almost 12 mile run isn't as intimidating right now as it was a few months ago.  :)
