Short-Term Running Goals:

I would love to improve my times without stressing too much on race day.  I would like to become a fitter and stronger runner.

(better than last year)

Long-Term Running Goals:

It would be pretty awesome to qualify for Boston, and I am now closer than I was before, but I still  have to knock just over 25 minutes off my time.

Personal:

I am married, no kids, two dogs.  I am a schoolteacher who moved in June 2009 from Florida to Georgia.

It was so nice to sleep in this morning.  I had th opportunity to try out my new running watch this morning. I finally broke down and bought one, since the battery in my previous one was on its way out.  I decided to go beyond my normal 6 since I had the time and energy and was able to get 8 in and feel really good.  So far, I am digging the watch since my overall average pace was about a 10:00 minute mile.  My first two miles were over 10, but the last 6 were under, which I was very happy about.  The weather was at least in the mid-40's which felt mild in comparison to what it has been.  This run was a really nice way to start the day.
