I just saw your report & time for the Run the River Half Marathon. Congratulations. You must be so excited. I know I would be! I was in San Antonio that weekend setting a personal worst for the half marathon in a big way. Injury and time off take their toll. I'm running again, but limited mileage and very slow. I'd like to think that I'll catch up with you eventually, but I bet by then you'll be even faster!Best wishes,DD

Sorry that I haven't replied in awhile, but things have just been crazy around here. I finally got some time to write back. It was great meeting you and can't wait to see you again in Jan. I think it is my hubby, Rob, and the baby that keeps me going. We did buy a treadmill for those days we can't go running outside. Thank you so much but I guess just wanted to get back to racing, and this keeps me going.
I am hoping to get some long runs in because we have a half marathon coming up Oct. 4th. I am just going to do my best.

To be honest with you, I couldn't have done it without the support of my hubby and everyone on Nike+. It really helped me out.
I want to extend my condolences to you, and sorry to hear of your loss. Please you are in my thoughts and prayers.

Wow! You're the mom of a 21 yr old and all those boys AND you ran a marathon! Now I have NO excuse not to run the Mardi Gras in February!!!Yep, I'm a music professor, and my instrument is horn! My 15 yr old is an All-State violinist, although these days he mostly plays World-of-Warcraft (I'm sure your boys know what THAT is!)Get that boy some lessons! WIth that ability and desire, he could get to a very high level!0@/ horngodessO

Hey Wondermom:I've gotten my improvements so far from intervals. There's a workout on the Powerbar website: (Click for the Link ...) I've seen & read says to increase miles first, speed second, so maybe we just need to be patient! Easier for me to say than to do!!!Good luck on your marathon!O

This was a "A" Race for me.
I rated my performance a 5 out of 5.
Race Notes: Was going to run this race with people from work. Turned out that all of them canceled, so I decided to just do it anyway. Was not a race that I would have done otherwise. Nice cool morning. At the start, runners ran over a photographer and we had to run around the tangle. Still ran a PR on this flat, out and back course. Fun!

This was a "B" Race for me.
I rated my performance a 4 out of 5.
Race Notes: Felt great, was running with my sister. About 5 miles in, she was tired and struggling a little. We slowed down and then I had her take the lead. I followed and matched her pace. A little warmer and more humid today. We kept the pace slower to make sure she didn't run into problems with cramps. We finished together and that was really cool. The course was kind of boring, too crowded in some areas, and lots of elbowing and pushing by runners.

This was a "B" Race for me.
I rated my performance a 5 out of 5.
Race Notes: First race to run with my sister. First run of the Goofy challenge. Felt great - weather was good. Course was boring. Slowed the pace a little midway through the race for my sister. We held back a little knowing that we would be running a full the next day.

This was a "C" Race for me.
I rated my performance a 4 out of 5.
Race Notes: Ran this for the third time to get the Legacy medal for Surf City. Not really an important race for me - ran with neighbors for fun. A little warm, but not bad. Not rainy and stormy like last year. Ran well, but a little delay in resetting my iPod to earn miles for a Nike+ challenge. Silly, don't know if I'd do that again, but it wasn't a high priority race.

This was a "B" Race for me.
I rated my performance a 5 out of 5.
Race Notes: Ran this race with people from work and my 17 year old son. He was running his first 5k and thought he could beat me. Fast, flat course on the runway of a military base. Lots of fast military guys kept the pace fast. My son took off fast and I never saw him again. Thought he was ahead of me the entire race. I ran hard and must have passed him without noticing. New PR!

This was a "C" Race for me.
I rated my performance a 4 out of 5.
Race Notes: Relay #2 with Nike+ friends. We ran with an ultra team of 8 rather than 12. Felt really strong for the first runs and finished faster than my expected times on 4 out of 5 legs. On the last leg, hot and humid on Sunday afternoon, ran out of steam and was really slow, walking part of it. Couldn't maintain any kind of pace after living in the van for two days with little sleep. Still had a blast running again with friends and working through the relay challenges.

This was a "C" Race for me.
I rated my performance a 3 out of 5.
Race Notes: Really fun trail run through the hills. Hadn't really trained for the hills and just decided to do this run on short notice. Beautiful views. Will do it again next year and train for a faster time.
