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!
