Running Accomplishments:

I started running in September 2007 - 4 months after baby #8 was born.  Since then I have finished two 5Ks, three 10Ks, three half-marathons, and I completed my first Marathon with at time of 4:48- the Phoenix Rock-N-Roll - Jan 2009!  Marathon #2 showed GREAT improvement - the Saint George Marathon 2009 with a time of 4:10 - YEAH!!!!

Short-Term Running Goals:

I want to run more marathons, finish injury-free, go dancing afterwards, and mostly have a LOT of FUN!!!

Long-Term Running Goals:

Keep running!!!  Someday I want to be able to consider myself as something other than a beginner.  :D

Personal:

I am happily married, have 8 children, and am madly in love with my awesome husband!!!  Besides running, I love performing on stage, and have recently become re-involved in the theater, after a LONG break to have children.  Last summer I did my first show as a PAID professional actress!  I teach piano and voice lessons, and homeschool my kids.  Life is grand!

I don't know what's up with me, but I have NOT felt well since Tuesday.  I think I'm depleted from getting so HOT on Tuesday's ride, and running at the lake last night fifn't help, either.  I was teaching bootcamp this morning, but only one person came for class, so we ended up having a VERY mild yoga day, mostly consisting ofstretches (Oh, my muscles are SORE!) and a few easy poses.  Luckily, there were no complaints - haha!  I guess an easy bootcamp day every now and again is a good thing.

After bootcamp, Kim, Katie and I went for a very slow, easy, flat bike ride.  We did 18 miles in 1:05:40, and I never took it over 22 MPH.  I have felt "off" all day long, and I'm hoping that I'll feel better tomorrow, since we have the Bryce Canyon Half on Saturday.  Feeling "off" stinks!  Phooey!!!  :P
