Mount Marathon Race, 2009, 1:41 Short-Term Running Goals: To post faster times in this summer's mountain races plus finish a half marathon at at the end of the summer. Would like to improve my Mt.

Personal: Single parent, live in Alaska, LOVE trail running, and the trails here are rough, baby. My dog is my best running companion, since she scares away the bears and moose. |

I am SO stoked! I placed 7th in the women's division of today's race. Too cool! The race was 4.0 miles, with the first two miles climbing up the Arctic Valley ski slopes, which meant we peaked one mountain, ran down and peaked another. Whew! The wind was so strong it almost knocked me over. Downhill was treacherous at the top and then sloped out so that I was able to run full-blast the last mile. Felt awesome.
The cool thing is that I am getting FASTER! My first mountain race I was in the front of the back of the pack; the second race I was in the middle of the pack; the third I was in the front of the middle of the pack. And today I was in the middle of the lead pack (I'm feeling it right now, too).
In two weeks I'm jumping over to pavement for the Skinny Raven 1/2 marathon. Uh-oh. |

| Down in Seward for work, a small coastal town in Alaska. Really beautiful except when it's raining. And it rained and rained and rained. Streets were flooded, bridges washed out. Quit after 3.5 miles--was just too miserable and cold. |

The rain stopped! Great run along the beach and then up along the highway, which wasn't as great but the way back offered killer views of the bay and mountains. Tide was coming in, the waves rocking hard. Could hear the harbor seals crying from their supper when I passed the SeaLife Center..
