Help to inspire others to get fit and be consistent in their training.....Continue to love running and stay injury free while I rack up the miles....

Personal:

I have been married for almost 20 years.... Dave is the only man that I think that was placed specifically on this earth to tolerate my crazy ways.

I have 2 boys - ages 9 yrs. and 18 yrs. old (senior in high schoold and known on this blog as "Ironman"- they are fabulous kids - I am very blessed!!!

I am an RN and have been for around 12 years.

I lift weights regularly and work abs 2-3 days a week.  I enjoy the beach, like to sing, and love to run!!!

Quit smoking about 4 years ago and couldn't run 1/4 way around a track when I began... started with elliptical and then got into running more seriously.  Cranked up the mileage and intensity when I began training for my first 1/2 marathon.  The rest is history.... or history in the making!?

I am sick with a cold but I sucked it up and hit the gym anyway. 45 minutes on the Elliptical.  My legs are fried. I have a race this coming Sunday... the Carlsbad All Day 25k- five 5k races in a row!  I hope to have some snap in these legs by then!  Last year I was 3rd in my division and didn't realize that until a day or two later when I looked at my results.  This year, I hope to kill it and stick around after the race... an award would be nice!!!
