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.

Completed P90X "Chest, Shoulders, and Arms". Tried to focus on increasing my speed again so I jogged for 2 miles on treadmill at 9:30 min/mile and then did 4x400 meters at a 8:30 min/mile pace with a 2 minute jog in between. Cooled down with a 5 minute jog. I'm starting to feel better during my speed training. I hope to increase my average pace within the next couple of weeks.

Completed P90X "Plyometrics". My legs were just to tired to run after an hour of jumping. I'm contemplating cutting back on my cross-training (P90X) and focusing more on running. I just can't fit both into my schedule!

Completed P90X "Back & Bis." Ran 3.5 miles at a 9:30 pace. I felt really good overall. It wasn't too long ago that I struggled to jog for 5 minutes at a 10:30 minute pace. Hopefully I can get faster.

Ran 4 miles at a 9:30 pace. Today, I wanted to focus more on distance than speed. I felt like I could have gone farther, but it was getting late and I wanted to be able to get to sleep at a decent hour.

Hiked 13+ miles with my husband. His ego was somewhat damaged because he realized I'm in better shape than he is :) It was fun to be out in the mountains and do something different.
