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!

What can I say, it was a tough running day for me.  I did enjoy being with the group and talking  with different people.  That's the one positive from today.  My second 5K was 29 something, I don't think I've ever been that slow on that route.  Oh well, we'll see if things get better in the weeks to come.

Cheryl,

I'd like to be as fast as you on your slow day. The snow probably slowed you down also. It was good to have you back.

I was gonna say the same thing---that snow was rough to tun in. It was slippery! And, by the way, there is nothing wrong with running a little slower on an off day!

Cheryl, you are amazing! Just getting out in that nasty weather deserves a medal-let alone any sort of time. Keep up the dedication and hard work, thats what really matters - always doing your best (even if thats 11 mm on a bad day!)
