"Back in the day" I ran distance track for my high school, however, one fateful day I hopped aboard a snow mobile and let's just say trees don't move out of your way! After my "run in" with the tree and a two year recovery I decided running was just out of the picture...and smoking was in! Oh ya, I thought I was the coolest girl ever...smoking up a storm and cloudin' up any room possible...But finally, wisdom kicked in and I realized that smoking really is bad for you....the scientists don't just say things to hear themselves talk afterall! Anyhow, I no longer smoke and I'm somewhat back on track...I would like to run everyday and hopefully, within a year compete in a marathon...yes,yes, I know hefty goals..but I think I can do it. I still live by the motto: 90% inspriation and 10% perspiration...I'm sure I didn't quote that just right, but you know what I mean. So, I'm here to find a few running buddies and other people interested in running and perhaps training for a marathon!
