I'm Kathy Brown and I've been an application developer in Lotus Notes/Domino since 2005.

Prior to working in IT, I've had numerous careers including an Investment Analyst and even an Actress (long ago and far away).

And I (try to) love running!

60 Days!

Category Running
Today marked 60 days of daily running! 189 miles!

60.PNG

It's hard to believe, and yet, not hard to believe. Tomorrow will be two full months of running every day. I feel great. The last few days have been a little tough due to the temperatures in the mid-80s and high humidity, but so far so good! It's better than snow, right?

I realize logically that this is a huge accomplishment, and am proud of myself. But, it really doesn't feel like it's been hard to do. I just run, every day, but still it's just running. Between two and six miles. I'm also in week three of my training for my THIRD half marathon. I am very interested to see how running every day will impact my training and my time.

I've also been doing the one hundred pushups program. I'm in the middle of Week 5 (although it's been 7 or 8 weeks). I'm feeling great with that as well. I started out only able to do 6 measly pushups. Last night's final set (of 8 sets) consisted of 40 pushups!!

I'm really looking forward to this weekend as my worlds collide! I will be going to IAMLUG, a conference for Lotus User's, and a few people have said they will be running with me! Woohoo! Running AND Notes! (God, I'm such a geek).

ETA: And I've run ALL of those miles on my chart in my Brooks Adrenaline GTS 8s! I love those shoes. I have three pairs of them!

Gravatar Image1 - This is absolutely amazing!! You should be extremely proud of yourself.
As I've told you before you run more miles in a week that I drive in my car to work!

One of these days you might even get me back to bike riding at least.

Congratulations on your achievement!

Gravatar Image2 - Thanks David. Do it, get back on the bike! Emoticon Remember, I was a SLOTH two years ago and didn't run unless chased!

Gravatar Image3 - I was thought that I would only run when chased. Then I realized that whoever was chasing me was going to catch me anyway so why start running? Emoticon

Gravatar Image4 - Awesome, keep up the good work. I have been following your posts and am excited to see you are continuing your streak. What got me to post today was your mention of the Adrenaline GTS 8s. I love mine, too. In fact, now that they are getting harder to find with the GTS 9s out, I just tracked down a couple new pair in my size. My first pair is now retired but I still use them if I run in or right after a rain storm. My runs include some dirt paths that can get pretty messy. That old retired pair have well over 500 miles on them and still feel really good.

Gravatar Image5 - @John - Yes, I think I've exhausted all sources for the 8s in my size. Haven't tried the 9s out yet. I'm afraid they can't be as good as my 8s!
