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
10.00

Up early to run 10 with Cheris, Julie, Michelle M., Eric and Alan.  We did a route we've done before, mainly in Riverton I think.  I'm thinking if I can regularly run 10 miles on Saturdays, that maybe in the spring when we start our serious marathon training the long runs won't seem so daunting to me.  I enjoyed the company today.  It did seem a little hard to get that 10 miles done; my legs felt weak and numb at the end.  Maybe in a few months it won't seem that difficult, at least that's what I'm hoping.

GREAT work getting it done. I was contemplating coming, but then work messed up my whole morning! I'm sure the legs are still just dragging a little from the marathon. I am a true believer in the 'a day for every mile' mantra!

Great job Cheryl. I can't even remember when the last time I ran 10 was, but it was more than a month ago.
