Short-Term Running Goals:

I want to run 3-4 days a week, and increase the mileage on my long run each week.

Long-Term Running Goals:

In 2009 I would like to do 2 half marathons and 1 sprint triathlon.

Personal:

I have always been athletic, but started running more seriously at the start of 2007. I had to take a few months off in the summer and fall. I had twins boys in Oct 2007 (hence the time off). I lost a lot of weight when I had them, but managed to gain some of it back. We have a double stroller, which is the hardest workout when I take the boys for a jog.

Race: Snow Canyon Half Marathon (13.1 Miles) 02:33:35
Total Distance
13.10

Snow Canyon half marathon.  I thought it was a good race, and I was pleased with my time, I was aiming to get in before 3 hours and keep a 13 min/mile pace.  I did an 11:43 overall pace.   They said there would be aid stations at miles

3, 5, 7, 9 and 11. This was true for the most part. We had them at

approximately mile 3, 4.5, 6.5, 8.5, which was all good, but then not

another one until almost 11.5. I was about to DIE!!!! My first 3 miles

were probably about a 10 minute mile pace. Mile 4-8 was maybe an 11

minute mile pace, and then 8-11 probably 12 minute miles. Miles 11-13

were probably like 15 minute miles.  My Garmin didn't work which was a bummer.  My Father-in-law came back after he finished and met up with me at mile 11 and finished with me, which was AWESOME!
