Wednesday, May 7, 2008. Well, I ended up staying off my ankle for over a week. I showed up to my Monday outdoor game, geared up, and tried to run around a bit before the game. and realized very quickly nothing good was going to come of me playing the field. I could barely run! When I tried to kick the ball with my bad leg it hurt too much, and I ended up just nudging the ball gently in a general direction. and whimpering a bit. Not gonna happen. This is how my ankle looked on Friday afternoon. Turned out...

http://dont-trip-jacqueline.blogspot.com/2008/12/news.html

Tuesday, December 2, 2008. Hola, my quiet readers! I know I still need to blog my Run Like Hell half marathon experience from mid-Oct. and it was a VERY fun run, so I will be doing that. BUT I just wanted to update people on my running news. A couple of things:. That's an hour and a half off my last attempt! So, I guess what they are saying is: I'd only have to mentor runners from Jan until early April, and then after that I get to be a non-fundraising freeloader for the next 3 months training with the t...

Friday, June 27, 2008. So it's occured to me that I need to be training for the 1/2 marathon on July 27th that I'd like to run. My "goal" for this half is a 12 minute mile. Soo according to the "experienced runner" 1/2 marathon training schedule I've transposed from Coach Joe and TNT onto the late July marathon date. I was supposed to do 10 miles on the weekend I did the ultimate frisbee tournament (which I didn't do). Maybe even the altitude was making this training run REALLY difficult for me. Also, ac...

Sunday, August 17, 2008. Running in a Sea of Cheese. A little over a week ago I found myself getting a little tired of running around Portland and Vancouver. finally. I found a little run on the coast this weekend called the Tillamook Bay Run, and I went ahead and mailed in a registration form and check for the run. I figured, why not? It'll be refreshingly NOT portland! Luckily it didn't take QUITE as long as they predicted to get out there. Home of THE MOST AMAZING CHEESE. I've been a fan of their Spec...

Wednesday, July 30, 2008. Ok, photos are up now! Here is us doing that warm-up thing at the start line. I'm not in that pic. The start line photos are kinda a "where's waldo" exercise for me actually. I put together a handy slide show with some of the shots I'm in. Can you find me? Here are some shots of the pretty views of the course. Note the complete lack of shoulder on the 2-lane rural highway. And here is my run to the finish line. I think the photographer caught me giving my victory "whoop! The dri...

Tuesday, September 16, 2008. On Sept 7, I got to participate in what has been voted Portland's BEST 10K event. I now know why. The event is called Pints to Pasta and is a run hosted by "Running with Paula" events. I'm pretty sure I have a link to those from this blog's sidebar. The interesting thing about this event was it was a one-way run. not a loop. The advantage of a one-way run is that you don't have to finish at the same altitude you start at! This is the view of Adidas as you get off the shuttles.

http://dont-trip-jacqueline.blogspot.com/2008/10/champoeg-half.html

Thursday, October 16, 2008. On Saturday Sept 20th, I ran my first half-marathon that I didn't train for. The idea behind this run was that on my training schedule for the "Run Like Hell" half in Oct, I was slated to run 12 miles that weekend already. 12 miles? Close enough. I intended to approach this run as a training run (i.e. don't push too hard, just enjoy the run and relax). I was like, oh? I drove on through, and followed the other cars to a big open field that was the start/finish line for the race.

Friday, October 17, 2008. Run for the Cheetah! On Saturday, Oct 11, I had an 8K footrace to run. It was the Run for the Cheetah, the last in a series of 4 races around the country to help. Raise awareness about the endangered cheetah and to raise funds to support the Cheetah Conservation Fund's programs. Appropriately, the race started and ended at the Portland Zoo. A couple things about this race had me apprehensive:. The schedule was as follows:. 7:00 am Day of Race Registration. 8:30 am 8K Run / Walk.
