Who Said Runners Don't Smile?: June 2011
http://whosaidrunnersdontsmile.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Who Said Runners Don't Smile? Sunday, June 12, 2011. On my writing.but definitely NOT on my running! I haven't had a lot to write about lately. Most of my recent runs over the last month have been short and sweet due to being sick. Dr. Rice diagnosed me with Chronic Cryptic Tonsillitis. Having a swollen throat/neck/tonsils made any long runs nearly impossible so I focused on speed work. Today, the hubby and I got out and ran our furthest outside run in a while. For me, it was my longest run since the...

Who Said Runners Don't Smile? Monday, May 30, 2011. Run It Forward, Bridge 2 Bridge. Despite still being sick and being on antibiotics, I was signed up for yet another race. Erik and I ran the Run It Forward Bridge 2 Bridge run in Bremerton on May 28th (which also happened to be Erik's birthday). As we came out of the tunnel, we made a sharp 90 degree turn onto Burwell. On Washington, the runners started to spread out. Thank goodness! This is where others stop and you can gain on them! One last hill to g...

Who Said Runners Don't Smile?: A new PR!
http://whosaidrunnersdontsmile.blogspot.com/2011/04/new-pr.html
Who Said Runners Don't Smile? Thursday, April 28, 2011. Today with the help of my amazing hubby, I set a new PR for the 5K! Before today, my fastest time was 27:04 so it was great to take almost a minute and a half off of my previous time. Erik is recovering from an injury so he is rebuilding his mileage right now. He wanted to go for a 4 mile run and wanted a running partner. I gladly accepted that task. I am so happy I did! April 29, 2011 at 3:37 AM. Great work on the pr :). Total Miles Ran: 360. Narro...

Who Said Runners Don't Smile?: Capital City 1/2 Marathon
http://whosaidrunnersdontsmile.blogspot.com/2011/05/capital-city-12-marathon.html
Who Said Runners Don't Smile? Monday, May 16, 2011. Capital City 1/2 Marathon. I just realized it's been a while since my last post.sorry. Here is a recap on yesterday's race! To start off with, my 3 year old has been tremendously sick over the last week. He had double ear infections and 103.9 temperature. He was also kind enough to share his nasty cold with his momma before this race. Friday evening I felt the crud coming on so I knew I was pretty much doomed. The next morning I woke up at 5:30am. T...

Who Said Runners Don't Smile? Wednesday, July 20, 2011. Ocean Shores 1/2 Marathon. On July 10th, I finished my 6th 1/2 marathon in 6 consecutive months. It graduated me up to two moon status on the Half Fanatics.which everyone dreads because it landed me on Uranus LOL! This was the last race that my sister-in-law, Andrea, needed to qualify for the Half Fanatics and also my stepson's first 1/2 marathon in over 6 months. Morning came way to quick! The beach entrance was loose sand that filled my shoes earl...

http://whosaidrunnersdontsmile.blogspot.com/2011/05/tacoma-city-marathon.html
Who Said Runners Don't Smile? Sunday, May 1, 2011. What a great last minute decision! I got invited to run on a relay team with the Dirty Girls (a local group who does trail running). The race was divided between 5 legs that varied between 3.9 and 6 miles. My leg was leg 2 and it was 4.8 miles long. I got up at 4:30am to get ready and go meet my team in Gig Harbor. I drove to Starbucks for my usual pre-race tradition.bad news, they weren't open! Oh yeah, this was our ride for the race:. As we were standi...

Who Said Runners Don't Smile? Friday, December 31, 2010. Sounds like a lot. Let me turn back the clock a little.about 3 weeks ago my husband, Erik, said to me, "You want to run a 1/2 marathon? Of course my response was, "I'm not ready yet! I had never run more than 6.75 miles before that day. Erik just replied, "If you can run a 10K, you can run a 1/2 marathon." Turns out, he was right. My sister-in-law, Andrea, met us there and with her husband, Jason, and we were off to Manchester State Park! He smiled...
