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:)

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.

Hakuna matata! Beautiful run this morning along the beach near volcanos. Ran up north to check out the island to a barricade blocking passage to a volcano. Watched the privilidged ride up on helicopters for tours. Ah, so cool.

Picked up the last two miles in 6:28 and 6:20. 7:15 AP for 8 miles total. Lots of walking and "Romancing the Volcano Lulau" tonight!

Burt- I'm sitting here at a Urology conference with Steve. I leaned over and asked him what GC meant. He stoically replied, gonorrhea and chlymidia. Clearly that's what you meant, and clearly it should be enjoyed. Do you think this will be edited and red lined?

From Tara on Sun, Oct 07, 2012 at 15:03:29 from 69.171.187.23

Allie- Be grateful. You could always be running by Smiths and dumpsters with GC!

If I have anything to do with it, it will. I should lose about 20 lbs this week because I've lost my appetite for a week!

From Tara on Sun, Oct 07, 2012 at 15:26:10 from 69.171.187.26

Burt- I hear GC can do that to you. Take care and eat mangoes, they have healing properties.

Hi Rachelle:)

Allie- Props to the mango segway. We have to be careful wih Burt during this difficult time for him.
