Personal:

I'm married with four children.  I run with a group called the Bingham Butt-Kickers, a really fun group of people that gets me out running early on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and sometimes Saturdays.   I recently found out that I've been running with poor form for many years, which has probably contributed to some nagging aches and pains I've had for years.  One of my big goals now is to be able to run with better form and to have running feel more effortless.  I hope this won't take too many years to achieve!

I started out on the canal road walking/running to warm-up.  Then I ran 30 minutes straight.  Not overly happy because I still felt too tense.  Also, it was windy, which I did not enjoy.  So then I went inside and ran 3 miles on the treadmill.  That was my favorite run of the day.  By the way, does anybody else think it seems to be windy all the time, at least in the So. Jordan area?

Wind or hills = speed training. Embrace them.

yes, it ALWAYS feels windy to me lately. Except I was really suprised at my run Saturday when we hit the point of the mountain there was NO wind...so baffled we talked about it almost 1/2 the way back!!

Yes it is always windy in South Jordan. I'm sorry you aren't going to be able to do Ogden. I hope they get your thyroid figured out soon.
