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.

Ran 10 miles up/down Provo Canyon.  Avg 7:14 up & 6:26 down for total 6:50 average.  I was thinking I felt really tired and thought I was still worn out from last week until I realized how fast I was going.

10 miles up/down Provo Canyon pushing my daughter in the stroller.  I used to push my boys all the time when they were little, but now I rarelly go with the stroller and it makes a huge difference.  I couldn't believe how tired I was going up the hills and how slow I was going.  Avg 8:02 pace.

20 miles.  Drove up South Fork with Melanie, Kim, Jane and Keri, one mile warm-up running up South Fork then 13 miles faster coming down avg 6:38 pace.  Then 6 miles slower out along University Ave and back to cars at avg 7:25.  Total run avg 7:02 pace.  It seemed like we stopped a lot.  After my 18 with them I did two more and ran into my brother Mark.  He ran my last mile with me and we iced in the river together.
