Long-Term Running Goals:

I love to run! I want to feel good and run for a very long time.

Personal:

My husband Brent and I live in Orem with our three kids ages 12, 10 & 7. Brent is a Marriage and Family Therapist and I'm at home with the kids. I used to be a CPA, but now I just do a little bookkeeping from home. For a lot of years running a marathon was something I did to get back in shape after having a baby. Just finishing was accomplishment enough, now I want to finish faster.

I ran the St. George Marathon in 3:18 when I was 18 and set a record for my age division 15-18. Now I train with the girl who broke my record. I love the marathon and half marathon. Long runs are what keep me from going crazy.

4 miles easy with daughter in stroller. I can't believe how much that 20 miler took out of me. I still feel like I'm recovering. And now my calves are all tight again. I hope my Achilles doesn't start hurting again too.

Ran 18 miles up/down Provo Canyon this morning. From my house south to the Will's Pit Stop on Univ Ave, then up the canyon to just past Vivian and back home. I ran south for a few miles first so I wouldn't be running in the canyon in the dark so early by myself. This was my long run for the week. Last Thursday's 20 miler was a total confidence smasher. I felt horrible and it took me days to recover. This run was more of a confidence leveler. I felt a lot better than I did at mile 18 on the 20 last week, but I think the course I was running was a little easier too. I was happy with my pace, avg 7:05 pace.

Went to the Park City 1/2 Marathon with my sister. She was registered, but unfortunately I didn't get registered before it filled up. I ran 2 miles with her at a 7:50 pace then took off. I ran 10 miles at avg 7:05 pace. Then I turned around and met back up with her for her last 2 miles at about 8:45 pace. I wish I could have been registered becasue I would have been in the top three. Maybe next year.
