Personal Best!!!

Tuesday, March 18, 2008 at 10:25 AM

Today I hit a milestone with a personal best for a 5km run, 32min & 33sec.  After recovering from my respiratory infection I am back to my good state of health and have begun to kick up the pace a bit on my training runs.  It's been really cold out so I have opted for the treadmill at the gym this week.  I'm still slow but for a 52 year old just getting started, I'm proud of myself!  6 weeks to go for the 5k in Century City to support Children's Cancer Research.

    Marta!! Wonderful. Good for you.

    I've been hiking again and trying to get the winter heavies out of my mind and body. I can relate with your excitement, however, I could never run like that..no no no...more of a mountain climber I am..haha.

    I'm impressed...

    Can you believe my ankle is STILL a little gimpy? I haven't been running for any real distance since we first chatted. OMG. We've been hiking a *lot*, though, so I haven't been a total slug. You, on the other hand, are a wild-woman! Go Marta, Go!
