A quick post. I was tagged by Running While Mommy to do the Another Mother Runner 10 Question Game.
So here goes!
Best Run Ever: My memory isn't that great so I'm going to the not-so-distant past and choosing my run starting at Blackie's Pasture in Tiburon. In the weeks since the run I've found myself reflecting on how great I felt that day, running along the water, perfect weather, feeling strong. As an aside, my most emotional run so far was my first Triathlon run as I was crying when I crossed the finish line.
Three words to describe my running: Me-time, adventure, gratitude
My go to run outfit: Running shorts (unless it's too cold), Moving Comfort Melbourne sports bra (which they've stopped making, darnit!), technical t-shirt (usually Under Armor).
Quirky habit while I am running: I like to imagine all the people that see me from their cars are thinking what an amazing runner I am :)
Morning, midday or evening runner? Midday is the best! Evening would be my second choice and morning is downright painful, though I do morning runs when there's no other time because even a hard running time is better than no running at all.
I won't run outside when: Hmm, I don't know if I have an answer for this. Maybe freezing cold and rain would keep me from running. One or the other I could manage but both would probably be too much. And by freezing cold I'm talking California standards here ;)
Worst injury and how I got over it: In the beginning of my running career I suffered from terrible shin splints. The key for me was to slowly build up strength and endurance.
I felt most like a badass mother runner when? I ran the 4th of July 4-miler in less than 40 minutes. I felt like such a rock star!
My next race is: The Livermore Grape Stomp half-marathon. I'm
Potential running goals for 2013? Well, since you're saying potential goals let's just go for the gold and say maybe I'll shoot for a full marathon!
And I will tag...
