Running Accomplishments:

My accomplishment to date completing 15 marathons and 6 ultras....nothing fast....yet.

Short-Term Running Goals:

In the next 2 years I'd like to complete three 50 milers and a hundred miler before I turn 40.  I'd like to break 5 hour marathon and then a 4:45 marathon and then keep improving.  I’m starting to think I’ll hit 100 miles before I see a sub 5 hour marathon…..Geez.

Fifty miler #1:  2008 JFK 50  13:29:53

#2 Hearland 50  13:51 (got lost had to find road back)

#Bethel Hill Moonlight Boogie  June 12, 2010...very soon

Two down....one more to go!

Long-Term Running Goals:

I would like to run 100 miles.

Personal:

I've got two wonderful kids who are 6 and 8.  I want to pass on the joy of running.

Hello from Georgia!  Now that September is almost over the morning temps are reasonable.  We had a 78 degree start with only 85% humidity.  It feels like heaven!

 Today our group decided we should do a hill route since we were going short.  Why do things always sound good beforehand?  We toughed it out with almost no complaints and had a strong finish.

I was signed up for the Hinson Lake 24hr race that is going on right now as I type.  Sadly, work/life decided that I needed to stay local.  I hope they are having fun up there.  I've heard such great things about the race.  Perhaps next year I can try again.

I hope you have a good run also!
