Running Accomplishments:

Biggest running accomplishment has been to simply start running and love it!  I've always been an athlete, but running was just one of those things done for conditioning because I was compelled to do it :).  My love for running (because I chose it) began in April of 2009 and I haven't stopped since!

8.2 across the Woodrow Wilson bridge again today.  High Humidity 88% at 6AM and 72 degrees...was sweating profusely.  Shirt soaked in the first 15 minutes...felt like running on the treadmill in the rec center.  My shirt was just sticking to me! 

Great run...love the trees and the smells...lots of Wisteria along the running path mixing with the smell of the ocean.  mmm
