Long-Term Running Goals:

I love training with others both on road and trail. I also find benefits of running solo when I need to focus and regroup.

Fun fact: Although I prefer to run outside, I don't mind the treadmill for pace accountability and for the blind assumption that I can run really fast. I have a lot of secret treadmill PR's at 0% incline:)

I am a Mormon

I am married to a supportive and driven husband. Together we enjoy geocaching, hiking, camping, reading and playing games with our three rambunctious children.

Aside from running, I am a homemaker and a Mental Health Therapist. Running has given me the ability to better concert my energies between my family, faith and friends.

Early gym workout. I thought about running, but my legs would not pick up once on the TM. A little sore too. I think I even have a shin splint:) The last time I had one of those was freshman year of high school. It's either that or the result of wearing my compression socks to bed. I pulled those puppies off this morning and my legs complained all the way to the gym. Decided to head to the Elliptical. I kept a moderate pace but perhaps a lazy pace at the same time, then picked up the last 10 minutes. 3 miles. Afterwards I felt like running but had to go to work. Maybe tomorrow I'll start off on the elliptical for a warm-up then attempt the TM. I don't know why early TM running for me is so hard for me. It must be mental.

Maybe there is an LCSW you could speak with regarding your early morning TM running conundrum....

LCSW, I don't know of any good ones. What I need is a Sport Psychologist. That would be the best job/hobby ever! Remember how I don't know exactly what you do...I need to check facebook to check your response.
