| Location: Herriman,UT, Member Since: Oct 02, 2009 Gender: Female Goal Type: Half Marathon Finish 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. Favorite Blogs: |

| | P90X "Chest & Back" and "Ab Ripper" workouts. I learned pretty quickly into each workout that I am not as strong as I once was. For many of the push up exercises I had to drop down to my knees half way through and I needed a chair for the pull-up/bar exercises. I guess that's what happens when you take over a month off from any strength training! 3.0 TM miles. 1/2 mile warm-up at 9:30. I alternated between 7:30min/mile for 1 minute and 9:00min/mile for 2 minutes until I reached 3 miles. I've got to go take care of my baby...poor kid has an ear infection. I'm am SO ready for summer! |

P90X "Shoulders & Arms" and "Ab Ripper" workouts.
5 TM miles. First mile warmup at 9:30. Miles 2-4 8:35 pace. Mile 5 cooldown at 9:30.
Took my 2 year old to Insta Care tonight with a high fever, thinking he had an ear infection like my 1 year old, but the doctor told me he was no ear infection but just a bad virus. Having sick kids is really exhausting! I thought of just about every excuse to not work out tonight, but I'm glad I did! Now off to bed! |

P90X "Yoga" tonight. It was a nice break away from running, jumping, and lifting this week. I needed a good full body stretch! On a more random note, after taking our car into get fixed from my car accident, they found some underlying damage and ended up totaling the car/determined the value was less than the total damages. So, after shopping for a new car for several days, I am now the proud owner of a 2004 Honda Pilot! Even better news? With the $ we got from the insurance company + our tax return, we were able to pay cash for it!!! Hooray for no car payment and a new car!!! |

| | P90X "Legs & Back" and "Ab Ripper" workouts. I can already feel a difference in my core from doing the ab workout three times this week. I only worry about going out for a run tomorrow morning after working my legs so hard. It may be painful! |

| | My husband let me sleep in this morning (he woke up with the kids) AND watched the boys while I ran outside! Hooray for no treadmill today! 7.0 miles around Herriman this morning. It was surprisingly warm and sunny today. I was definitely dressed too warmly. I found out that I still struggle with hills, not only while climbing the hill, but after. It's like my legs are too tired to keep my average pace. I need to start sprinting up the hills in my neighborhood at least once a week so that my legs can get used to them. Maybe I will try and attempt that next week. Off to an early Valentine's dinner. Stinks that he has to work next weekend but at least we won't have to fight the crowds! |
