Hi guys,
So I'm still recovering but tonight's track workout really helped me begin to feel like my old self. My mile tonight was a blazing 5:04. Not my best but I'm still trying to get my speed back. It was so much fun.
I'm leaving for Utah in a couple of days. I'm really excited about training in Utah. According to my mom, the weather is amazing and perfect for running. Also, there's a super cool running store up there that's pretty popular called The Salt Lake City Company. I'm planning on meeting up with a group of people there to run on Saturday morning. It won't be the Final Kick group but it should still be fun.
Happy Running in SLC,
About Me
- Renee High
- I grew up in Franklin, Kentucky. I moved to Virginia Beach in 2003 and in 2004 I met the gang at Final Kick. Final Kick quickly became my home away from home. I ran my first marathon in 2005 (Shamrock Marathon). It was one of the most painful and amazing experiences of my life. I ran a 3:07 and I crossed the finish line with bloody heels (the right socks are so important). I couldn't wait to run another marathon and I choose The Richmond Marathon. I loved this race and it's still one of my favorites. Shamrock 2006 was my breakout race. I won it in a time of 2:45:40 and I was ecstatic. I also qualified for the trials with this race. Over the next couple of years I graduated from Nursing school and then eventually received my Master's in Exercise Science. In 2010 I raced the Chicago Marathon in a time of 2:45:26 and again qualified for the 2012 Olympic Trials. This was an amazing day for me. And I can't wait to race in Houston 2012
