Running Accomplishments:

This blog is intended for my wife, Alison, to log how much she runs. Currently I (Desi) enjoy running the distance between my house and the mailbox. I get more excited about my wife's running than she does. My wife completed the Top of the Mountain marathon in Logan, Utah(2007) with the personal best time of 3:33 her first marathon.

  Ali  has some awesome friends to run with that continue to keep her on the run and very motivated most of the time.

 


Short-Term Running Goals:

Ali's Goals:

Work on getting stronger in shorter distance races.


Long-Term Running Goals:

Ali : Try keep fit and running the rest of my life.  Help those around me appreciate the importance of staying fit and healthy.

Maybe get into the couple running thing with my wife, but I don't know!( motivation is lacking)

Personal:

We have 4 children (2 girls, and 2 boys). I am very supportive of my wife and her running.   I do all the bragging for her. Played football at BYU, but I never have had the long distance threshold.  I blame that on my size.   We met at a local dance club while attending college. We have been married for 11 wonderful years.

I ran down to the gym today. I did a hour yoga class. I ran a different way home and ran into Jamie and Amber so I ran a little with them. Jamie and I split off a couple of miles from my house so my last 2 miles were lonesome. I felt good today, unlike Saturday's run so that made me feel better about my workout today.

Happy New Year everyone!  I did the circuit training class today with some women in my neighborhood.  I like to see them work hard to get into shape.  It's a good toning class for me and it gets my heart rate up a little.  The fun began at 11:00 when I met up with my running friends Amber , Jamie , Michelle, and Josse for a 7 mile run around the Spanish Fork river bottoms.  It wasn't too bad outside once your body got used to the frigid air. Thanks for the run guys.

I had to run on the treadmill because my husband had to work.  So I had to switch with a friend to babysit my kids. I ran on the treadmill and I did two one mile intervals mixed in my slower miles at a 6: 03 and a 6:20 min. pace.  It was hard.   Then I did 15 min on the stair climber.  It was a good workout.

I did the treadmill for six miles then I did some upper body weight training. I hater being confined to indoors sometimes. I like running outside because as far as I go I know I have to turn around and come back.  On a treadmill I can stop and I'm done. Oh well, at least I did something.

Jamie and I met up at 6:30 and ran in Springrville thinking we were getting out of the wind.  Sucks  for us because the wind was blowing in adifferent direction in Springville.  Despite the wind and rain. we toughed out 12 miles .  We both almost peed our pants from a dog sneaking up on us and scaring us . It was probably funny to watch, but our hearts were racing pretty fast.  Thanks for the run Jamie.
