	Database Diva wrote at 12:13 AM Nov 30: Deleting ... 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

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. Shannen O

I want to extend my condolences to you, and sorry to hear of your loss. Please you are in my thoughts and prayers. Shannen O

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

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

Coaster Run 5K, 10K and Camp Snoopy Kids Runs 2009: Run- 5K

Sunday, 03/15/2009 — Buena Park, CA

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!

Walt Disney World Marathon 2009: Run-Marathon

Sunday, 01/11/2009 — Orlando, FL

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.

Walt Disney World Marathon 2009: Run-Half-Marathon

Sunday, 01/11/2009 — Orlando, FL

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.

Surf City USA Marathon, Half Marathon, 5K 2009: Run-Half-Marathon

Sunday, 02/01/2009 — Huntington Beach, CA

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.

Los Alamitos Race on the Base 5K/10K,Triathlon: Run - 5K

Saturday, 02/21/2009 — Los Alamitos, CA

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!

The Texas Independence Relay 2009: Run-200Miles

Saturday, 03/07/2009 — Gonzales Through Houston, TX

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.

Hi Jane: Ouch -- hills are hard on knees! Obviously you are a much more experienced runner than I am but I had a little knee lesson myself recently. As I started doing longer runs, my knees were getting sore. I thought it was just the distances.

I did some research, however, and learned that knees suffer when your shoe's "mid-sole" wears out (this begins at about 150 miles). I had 300 miles on my shoes so I just bought another pair and my knees totally stopped hurting even on the longer (6-8 mile) runs. I have read some people replace their shoes as early as 300 and others as late as 700 miles but I'm willing to pay the price of earlier replacements for the sake of my knees. Not sure if you're already doing this but I figured it was worth mentioning since it literally fixed my knees instantly. Also, I just bought these socks at (Click for the Link ...) which are very comfortable to run in. Good luck with your half marathon -- just the thought of it makes my lungs burn!

The Great Race of Agoura Hills 2009: Chesebro -Half Marathon

Saturday, 03/28/2009 — Agoura Hills, CA

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.
