Five weeks into training for her first marathon she injured her knee and life being as it is she didn't get back into running until one college degree, one wedding, three kids and fifteen years later. Now 41, she finally ran that first marathon in 2003 and is took 23 minutes off her time in her second marathon in Seoul (March 2004).  (See her race report here.)  Cindy lives and runs in Seoul, Korea, where her husband is a teacher on the U.S. army base.
