Personal:

Married.  Stay at home mom.  My husband and I have 2 daughters and 4 sons.  And I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

With a seemingly impossible long-term goal of running a sub 3 hour marathon, the following scriptures give me hope:

In your patience possess ye your souls. Luke 21:19

But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing. James 1:4

But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it. Romans 8:25

Submit cheerfully and with patience to all the will of the Lord.         Mosiah 24:15

And Ezra teaches that discipline and patience are born of disappointment.

Ali drove to my house and we ran west away from the wind.  It was nice because we didn't end up dealing with wind the rest of the time.  Switched the route up a bit but I think the distance ought to be close.  Ten weeks pregnant and feeling pretty good.  Half way through January as well, can't complain.

Bad morning.  Got a full 8 hours of sleep last night, but woke up very tired.  I hate that.  I have been fighting a sore throat for the past two days.  That may be a factor.

Didn't help that I ran solo.  Glad to be done.  Distance is approximate.

Felt good waking up this morning on 7 hours of sleep.  Go figure.  An easy 8 miles with Ali this morning.  The distance may have been slightly more.  I stretched out the very last part of my run, when close to my home.  I think I had a few more miles in me...wish Ali and I had gone a bit further.  Had to get back for Phillip, but he ended up leaving the house a half-hour later than he had originally planned.

It was cold and lightly snowing, but there was little wind (thank goodness).  Can't wait until winter is OVER!  I suppose I shouldn't complain so much.  I'm going to be dying from the heat in the summer.  I don't know which extreme is worse, honestly.  I hate them both.

I had a congested baby early this morning; I wasn't able to fall back to sleep after taking care of him.  So, I decided to start my run a bit early.  Ran a longer route to the Stake Center to meet Michelle.  Did circles around the building, in the parking lot for about 10 minutes, tempted all-the-while to wait inside the Stake Center.  It was about 6'F this morning!  Ugh!  (A group of Basketball players had unlocked the doors.)  Michelle is typically on time, so I knew something had happened.  She ended up sleeping through her alarm.

I decided, since I was already a good bit into my run, to keep going and get it over with.  Guessed on an approximate 8 mile route.  I was unwilling to look at my watch because, half way through, my hands were ice blocks.  Sheer misery!  Upon arriving home, I checked my watch and was surprised that I was out a bit longer than I had thought.  Distance is approximate...I'm counting it as a 9  miler.

Random route with Ali this morning.  Started by heading north-east.  Turned around, went west and past the ball fields.  Headed into the River Bottoms from Main.  Turned south and then up the first hill.  We split, towards our homes, on 14th East and Canyon Rd.  I'll call it 9.5 miles.

Running with my friends makes winter mornings so much more bearable!  Thanks for a good run this morning Ali!

Unfortunately, I had a snuggly little girl with a fever last night.  Didn't get to bed until after 1am.  Decided to give everyone a break this morning and skip my L.A. Freeway run.  The whole house slept until just after 8am this morning, so I guess we all needed it.
