I AM STILL RUNNING

Wow lots has happend since I last posted. I did complete the Colfax marathon in 6 hr 1 min. The worst part of it all was coming into the park and the finish area it was not marked and no voluntters so I was offf course about 1/2 mile that was when I started to almost cry! I did see the finish line finally and picked it up the announcer was there along with my friends! I almsot lost it when the announcer called my name and then said. "Welcome back home Rebecca!" out of 414 people who did the full marathon I was 404 so I cannot complain.

Recovery from it went well was not bad at all. I have been sort a slug the lastfew months still running but nothing really much. I am starting back to today to train for marathon #2 Denver marathon Oct 19! yahoo I am excited. it seems when I set goals out there I then have no problem reaching them especially running ones!

At the end of April I moved out of my boyfriend Kelvin home. we have been dating 7 yrs and lilving together about 3. It was one of the hardest thing to do but I felt it was time for me to move on. I found a great 1 bedroom apt not far away and so far the transition is going well. Only time will tell what will take place. We are still friends and see each other here and there.

Running has changed me a lot the last 2-3 yrs and I cannot go back to the person I used to be.

I am also doing triathlon training but not many events this year do to $ now that I am living on my own.
