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.

This run felt really good.  I was able to push fast because I tried to mentally focus on not the time, but just how I felt.  I think I can be faster than I give myself credit for.

Longest run yet!  And it felt really good.  By the end my legs were really tired, but my heart and breathing were fine.  I just need to keep training my legs.

5 min WU, Run easy and consistently for 95 minutes (9:04-10:04 pace), if feeling good go another 15 minutes, 5 min CD.

8:45 WU, 8:09, 8:08, 8:07, 8:07, 8:06, 8:09, 8:08, 8:08, 8:06, 8:41, 8:12, 8:11, 8:02, 8:16 (.84 miles), 8:18 CD

TOTAL: 2:00:00 at an 8:12 pace.  Becuase this was on the treadmill I know I went faster than if this was outside.  But I'm proud of myself for completing my longest run yet.  That does a lot mentally!
