I accidentally ran 100 miles in November 2013. it was hard. I threw up a lot. decided to do a better job next time
I did it again on purpose October 2014--Heartland 100 winner and CR 17:38:37
Heartland 50 winner May 2014
Psycho Wyco 50k winner February 2012
Short-Term Running Goals:
Run enough to hold off the middle-age spread
Long-Term Running Goals:
Sub 3 hour marathon--SOMEDAY! Done!
New long term goal: ....run enough to feel kinda like I did when I was fit
Personal:
I was a single mom. Two times over. We all survived, despite the fact that I make atrocious decisions. Then, I met a man I didn't deserve. And he loves me so much. And I love him. We lived in sin and bought a house for two years then hired a judge and officially got married(to our great delight and also the delight of our mothers), then a month later he was diagnosed with cancer. Well we survived all that and he's 100% fine now. But, we're really out of shape and really busy with kids and jobs and running just isn't my priority and there's so many other layers to all of it, but I'm running anyway. This is my failure blog now. Just to log that one run a week if I snag it.
Somehow that matters and I want that run recorded.
8:29 AP. Nice and easy near home between night shifts. One more night shift(working it right now haha!), then home, sleep, pack, little run, time with the fam, and onto the plane Thursday morning!!!
Weight: 0.00

Good luck at St. George, April, you have been doing awesome in your training and had some wicked fast 5k's a couple months ago. We all hope you just fly thru the course - you certainly deserve it!!
Are you heading straight to St. George? Or flying into SLC and renting a car? If you're coming into SLC and need a ride locally or a place to stay one night, let me know, as I'd be happy to help. (I'm not heading to SG, but I'll be anxiously waiting to read the race reports!)
Go, April, Go!!!!
