I am running regularly for the first time since high school. Any personal bests and accomplishments are in the distant past.
Short-Term Running Goals:
I am currently trying to build a good mileage base and achieve a level of fitness that will enable me to run every morning and not feel like I just got out of surgery the rest of the day. I am approximately 20 pounds overweight, so weight loss because of and in support of the running is important as well.
I would like to complete a 10k in under 50 minutes, a 5k in under 24 mintues, and possibly run a half-marathon during the next two years.
Long-Term Running Goals:
Eventually, I would like to run a marathon spend time running races around the country. My main goal, however, is to achieve and maintain a consistent and fun running lifestyle.

I felt tight and sore at the start. I struggled to get my pace under 10/mile early. After 2 miles I eased into a consistent pace. At the end, was surprised by finishing at 9:17/mile, which isn't fast, but isn't slow for me.
