Happy 2008! It boggles my mind that 2007 has come and gone. We spent a nice quiet evening watching movies and of course the ball drop. I promptly fell asleep at 12:01. Exciting, I know!
I'm still feeling soreness in my legs and left foot from the 17 mile run on Sunday.
It's quite the confidence builder knowing that I was able to run this distance outdoors even if it did take me 3 hours and 16 minutes. My average pace was 11:34. Fast I am not. People assume I am fast because of my build. I'm a back of the pack runner and don't think I'll ever eclipse a 10:00 mile.
My goal for the marathon is 5:30. I think it's doable but will not be too disappointed if it takes longer.
Been thinking about other events to tackle in 2008 and this is what I've come up with:
- AngelRide (130 Mile bike ride) in May
- Philadelphia Women's Duathlon in July
- Hartford Marathon in Oct
I just need to stay healthy, injury free and most importantly have fun.
