Quality for the Olympic Trials in the marathon Personal: I am originally from Knoxville, TN and moved to SLC with Jake in 2010. I started racing in 2011 and had some great success before a major injury hit me in July 2012. I had athletic pubalgia surgery in May 2013...then again in Sept 2014 and am still trying to get back to my old self. Although running is my true passion, I love doing pretty much anything active outdoors - backcountry skiing, backpacking, biking, etc.
I've been running for the Saucony Team since 2011. I enjoy representing the brand and really do believe they make the best shoes :)
I work as a Quality Engineer for BD Medical in Sandy.

AM - Jealously dropped off Jake to run with friends then headed to the gym. Rode on the bike for an hour while reading Meb's autobiography. I had to push with my heels which made for slightly awkward cycling but my foot didn't hurt at all. I think the plan this week is biking a lot.
Somehow managed to get sick again, this time with chest congestion, throat and ear pain. No fun. Pics from yesterday -

AM - Strengthening exercises for 30 minutes. I hoping that all these hip and back exercises will prevent my back pain from coming back in full force once I start running again. My foot feels significantly better which makes me believe that it wasn't a stress fracture but just needed some time off. I'm going to be conservative and not run the rest of this week so that I'll be ready to go next week!
PM - Spin session. 10 min warmup then 20 minutes at 160 bpm heart rate, which felt like a pretty hard effort. Then 5 x 30s sprints. 45 minutes total. 14.6 miles.

| | AM - 45 minutes cardio, 5 min warmup, 10 min on the stairmaster backwards, then 30 min on the recumbent bike. Didn't feel any pain when I was doing exercise, but the rest of the day I felt a little pain in my foot :o( I was trying not to put any pressure on my forefoot at all, so not sure what that means. |

AM - 30 min strengthening exercises. Last day of crazy work and hosting and then I get my life back! PM - 35 min strengthening exercises. Foot aching all day today (I think because I had tighter shoes on?)

AM - Was totally worthless and slept in until 7:20am. It's hard to be motivated! Will try to make up for it this afternoon. PM1 - Bike 20 min, elliptical 10 min, and some strengthening exercises. Had 45 minutes in between meetings at work.
PM2 - RAN 3 MILES! It felt so good to exercise outside and the weather is very nice for February...I went to the Olympus track and ran on their turf field. There was a slight numbing sensation in my big and 2nd toe, but no pain at all. Icing now, will try to run a little tomorrow too.

| | AM - !!!!!! After a good run yesterday, I couldn't help but join Emily B, Devra, and Allie for a run this morning. My foot was not painful at all throughout the run!! We were close to my house at 7 miles and the girls helped me make a smart decision to not do too much too early. I cut off from them and headed home. Average 7 min mile pace. So happy to run :o) |
