I've been a runner for most of my life, but I've usually been a slow runner, always content to plod along on my merry little way. I've finished about six marathons and my PR is 4:45. I've run in a couple half marathons and my PR is 2:09. I've run a 10K and a bunch of 5Ks and although I can't remember my exact times, my PR in the 5K was probably around 28 minutes.
I am determined in 2009 to be mediocre no more. I want to become more competitive, one of the fast girls. I'm not trying to place in local races or qualify for Boston, but I want my overall pace to get faster and I want my times to come down. In this blog I will track my "journey to fast" and I will also post inspiring articles, links, quotes, book reviews and other motivation aimed at other runners who want to become faster... whatever that may mean to you.
