I started running in May of 2006 while losing 85 lbs after my youngest was born. I have 6 fantastic kids, 3 girls and 3 boys and a wonderful husband. My oldest is in college and my baby is in pre-school. (Six kids in 5 schools ;)

Total Distance

4.16

I warmed up on the treadmill then stretched. I ran the Onion Day's 5k route backwards from my house. I prefer it backwards. When I run it regular, it gives me an anxiety attack. I stretched at home and am now stinking up the couch blogging :)

I am thinking about doing a 5k time trial with Michelle tomorrow. I want to, to see if Painters 5k is a good idea. If there were no Painters, I would postpone a time trial until the end of the month. So, I think I should do the time trial at the the end of the month. This will give my legs all the time they need to make sure they are healed/healing. So for my run with Michelle, I will just have to torture her will the uber-Granny Marion Pace :)

Ave 11:22. Laps- 11:00, 11:09, 11:46, 11:26. Running this the race direction has forced me to skip the fact that the first mile is slightly down hill and mile 2 is a little more down hill. Very interesting. this will help me plan my race a bit better in the future :)

Asics Gel-Nimbus 9 Miles: 4.49

I know what you mean when you say you ran it backwards, but I'm enjoying imaging you actually running backwards.

You seem to be getting stronger all the time.
