More of you and less of me.......

I started this blog a year and a half ago as a way to chronicle my journey of running my first marathon which I ran in April of 2014. Running has been therapeutic for me these last four years as I have faced many challenges that had nothing to do with running. Many of you know my stories because we really do get to know one another on those long runs, don't we? For those of you that are interested all you need to do is click back to the beginning of my blog. As for me it is time to move forward. My blog entries are now going to focus on the runners I am working with in the Start 2 Finish training program that is offered by GoRun/Fleet Feet.
Colette Cook and myself will be coaching runners that have a goal of finishing the Prairie Fire Half Marathon with a time between 2:06-2:20. The training is ALL about the runner which means if running with my group is too slow or two fast for an individual person they can move up or down to another group. It is going to be fun getting to know the runners in our group. It is my goal to push them but secretly hope that they push me. Get ready H3 I want to hear YOUR stories. I will also post my weekly workouts and if you would like to run with me and/or join me at a class at the YMCA that would be great. Our first long run yesterday was great! Running from GoRun/Fleet Feet East is my favorite location. I like the hills and have been told that Route 66 Half Marathon (my race after Prairie Fire) is a hilly beast. James Wentz (in our H3 group) and his wife Nicole are planning on running it too. Thanks Donna for snapping this photo
from our first group run. I know that some in our group were not at Saturdays run. Can one you help me with the name of the girl in the cap? I hope to get a group photo with all of us in the next few weeks.
