Running Accomplishments:

Maybe someday I'll have something noteworthy to post in this section. I have only completed three 5ks and a 5 miler; all at an average pace somewhere in the 9:00-9:30min/mile range

Painter's Half 2010 - 2:03:54 

Short-Term Running Goals:

Painter's Half Marathon - would like to keep an average pace of 9:00min/mile. 

Painter's Half - Went over my goal and finished in 2:03:54 :( It was my first half though.  I had a great time and learned what I need to work on.  

Salt Lake Half Marathon - would like to finish in under 2 hours. 

Long-Term Running Goals:

Would like to complete a full marathon in the fall of 2010 and finally conquer the Herriman Hill...to be honest, there are several hills in Herriman I'd love to conquer, but that one for sure!

Personal:

I am a stay-at-home mother, married and have two young boys.

Total Distance
4.75

4.75 miles...outside! Yes folks, I braved the bitter cold!!! It actually wasn't too bad if the wind wasn't blowing. As soon as I get my Garmin, I think I might actually go outside more often.

I realized, again, that my body is not used to hills and I need to run them more often so I'm not so intimidated by them! I hate what it does to my already slow pace. Oh well, we all have to start somewhere I guess.

Thanks for the run Kelli!

You did fine up the hills! It really was a long and steady hill(up or down) the entire way. That is why I like to just run up HUGE hills and get it over with!

I think you are doing great. You have not run outside that much, yesterday was freezing (which is hard on the body and the longs and slows you down), and you have been sick. You really are doing GREAT!!!

Call me any time you want to head out to run and I will be there!!!! You just have to be willing to endure my incessant talking.
