Beginning/sporadic runner here with very modest accomplishments and goals, but here they are:
2007 highlight: longest distance run ever - 4 miles.
2008 goal: up my longest distance to 5 miles.
I have no desire to race as I am slow; I just enjoy the process and the runner's high that follows!

I started running in October of 2006 so that I could do triathlons in 2007. I fought through ankle pain that got fixed up with custom orthotics. My highlight was running a 5k race in June with a PB time and pace. Unfortunately, I twisted and sprained my ankle in that race and took a tumble. This injury set back my entire training calendar and I think it also set up my knee issues. Anyhow, I ended up running 250 miles last year and I have a goal of 350 miles this year. I'm also determined this year to run the entire 5k portions of my triathlons. No injuries!
I'd rather be swimming...biking...running...and eating cheesecake...
