Personal:

I'm married with four children.  I run with a group called the Bingham Butt-Kickers, a really fun group of people that gets me out running early on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and sometimes Saturdays.   I recently found out that I've been running with poor form for many years, which has probably contributed to some nagging aches and pains I've had for years.  One of my big goals now is to be able to run with better form and to have running feel more effortless.  I hope this won't take too many years to achieve!

Total Distance
7.00

Met the group at Peggy's house.  We warmed up, then did some speed around her subdivision.  It was a little tough for me to keep the speed up.  I liked the slow down parts.  Mental battle just to keep going, but I did.  We then ran on another street where we did fast 1/4 miles, then recovery 1/4 miles.  I was pretty spent from what we did at first, so I took it easy on that.  Hope to feel a little better in the coming weeks.

I hope you do, too.

Are you really okay for Thursday, or would you rather I was in charge?

I hope you feel better soon as well! I appreciate you waiting up for me at the end this morning, I was spent from pushing the first splits! Thanks again for all you do for us, you really are an inspiration!

Peggy--Thanks. I'm fine with Thursday. Just wondering what we should do. Suggestions anyone?

Thanks Rachel and Kelli for those nice and encouraging comments.

Nice easy run, maybe a 10 minute mile pace and no hills or snow or cold air! How does that sound???
