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.
Yeah! I ran 5 miles! I haven't done that in a very long time and it felt good! I started running with a goal of 3 miles and I just felt like I could keep going. Again, I wasn't very fast and finished in 49 minutes, but I did it!
Wanted to run 4 miles today but woke up with a fever and a bad cold. I thought it would be better to rest than push it and not be able to run the race on Saturday. I hate being sick, but I guess it's that time of year!

What perfect weather for a run! I really enjoyed this race. I was nervous about all of the hills since I'm used to running mostly on my treadmill. They really slowed me down, but I was happy that I only had to stop to walk once for about 30 seconds. I still need to work on increasing my speed!
