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.

4.5 TM miles at a pace of 8:50 min/mile. I also did four .25 mile sprints at 6:40 min/mile with 2 minute jogs in between. I don't think I have run that fast since elementary school! I ate a handful of jelly bellys before I ran, so I that must have given me the extra energy :)

After being getting very little sleep the last 3 nights, due to my sick 2 year old, I haven't had the energy to do much, let alone run in the cold! But after eating way too much celebrating my anniversary at my favorite restaurant, I had to get out there this morning. Today I got up and ran 3.5 miles at a nice 9:00min/mile pace. That's about all of the energy I have today. Hopefully I'll get in more miles in the last 2 days of this week to make up for all the days I missed!

What a beautiful morning! My wonderful husband let me sleep in AND go for a 9 mile run while he watched our kids! I headed out around 9:30am and originally wanted to do 10 miles, but those darn hills kept slowing me down! I was exhausted by the time I got back to my neighborhood and just didn't have the energy to run all the way up a steep 3/4-mile hill to my house. Maybe next Saturday...

Here are my splits for today: AP 9:16

Mile 1: 7:44 (all downhill), Mile 2: 8:49, Mile 3: 8:35, Mile 4: 9:05, Mile 5: 9:37 (heading back uphill), Mile 6: 9:11, Mile 7: 9:35, Mile 8: 9:46 ("I think I can, I think I can"), Mile 9: 9:48.
