I've gone insane!!!!!

Check out how I'm going to mark my 2nd surgery anniversery!!!!   www.coloradorelay.com      I will be attempting this crazy race with some gals from work and their friends. 12 ladys in all 24 hours 170 miles 4 mountain passes. Its not until sept 08 but its my next major goal. everyone on the team we formed has different running abilities and our goal is to have fun and finish. I was alittle worried and wanted to make sure they new my lack of running history. Even the gals I don't know are so supportive of the weight loss and my training. We hope to plan a couple of 5k together before hand to break me in a bit  HAHAHA..  Amy P.S. We are team "Mental in the mountains"

Amy, You are not going insane!!!! You are just redisigning yourself. Good Luck!!!! You will do great even if it is snowing there. Carla

Way to go!  I remember years ago when that race was just getting started.  I think they used to run to Leadville.  You got a year to train for it.  You'll be ready.  I didn't know you were doing 5k's.  Maybe I'll come back to Colorado and run the Bolder Boulder with you next year.  That was always a fun, if not crazy, race.   Dad

Hey Dad. Ihaventrun a 5k yet. I want to try to run the rudolf ramble in December. My knees are slightly protesting. They get sooo stiff after I run. I have an appointment with the Dr. next week. I think I just started to much to soon. I backed off a little and will try more strenght training in my legs and knees.Maybe the oliptical????? I just don't want to get the standard Dr. reply (just walk don't run) Maybe a cortazone (sp) shot or two???? Not ready to take no for an answer.     We are talking about running the Bolder boulder in May,I think its the same weekend as Allies hockey tourney in Omaha??? Will have to see.Have ya got a date yet????? Will you be drinking Cristmas dinnerOr will it be after the first of the year? Have a great night  Love Amy
