Mile 13 of my first race & still smiling - Fifth Third Riverbank Run 25K, May 2006	Name:  Eryn Gender:  Female Profession:  Currently: Professional Student Age:  32 Height:  5' 3.5" Current Weight:  150 lb Goal Weight:  130 lb Location:  Lakeview, MI
About me:  I am happily married (just celebrated 1yr) & we have 3 children between us, ages 6, 7 & 8. I was formerly a medical practice manager & medical management consultant, but I'm now a bum! Actually, I've returned to school to seek my nursing degree & eventually my CRNA. In my spare time, I run, run, run & also train horses & give riding lessons. Why do I run:  I run for peace of mind, for relaxation, for fitness. I run further than what people think I can, because I can. Why I started running:  I have been a runner off & on since junior high school, but more off than on since hs graduation. A few years ago, I promised myself that I would run a particular 25K race before I turned 30. Last fall, I realized the big day was just 4 days before my 30th birthday, so I kicked it in to high gear! I completed the race in a personal record time for me & felt great!!
