Personal:

I am married with 2 children. I am an elementary school teacher, but I stay home with my kids right now. I have always been an "on and off" runner. The last major running I did was in 2006 when I trained for the Salt Lake City 1/2 marathon. I was heavy when I ran it and even though I trained, it really did me in. I have since lost 30 lbs. and feel so much better, so I am wanting to try a whole Marathon in the near future.

Today was a great day. I met 4 great new running pals! A huge thank you goes out to (I hope I'm getting all of your names right) Marion, Kelli, Leslie, and Morene (or do you spell it Maureen?). Thank you for letting me tag along with all of you today. It was so fun to find some new friends and find out about this fun running blog. I was bummed to have to do the breast cancer walk all by myself, but in the end I met some great gals. Now, I know some of you I jogged with today are super duper runners!...but 4 miles was huge for me today. I have been trying to get the umph back to get back into running and maybe this was the nudge I needed.  After I did the 1/2 marathon 2 1/2 yrs. ago, it was so hard on my body (because I was too overweight) that I completely lost interest in running after that. I really want to get back to it. I hope I can keep it up. Thanks again girls...I really had fun!
