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.

Slept in and worked out while my daughter was in preschool. My husband had the day off work so he came with me on his bike. Ran 1 mile warm up then intervals 1 mile hard 1/2 mile easy, repeat. The first three intervals were up the canyon and the last 3 coming down.

Interval times: 6:28, 6:39, 6:30,6:22,6:12,6:33

Finishing the last interval coming up the hill on 800 North in Orem I though "How does Nan run this fast for 26 miles!"

Avg whole run 7:16

Slept in and went out around 9:00 a.m. Ran 14 miles up/down Provo Canyon form my house. Average 7:18 going up and 7:00 coming down for total Avg 7:09 pace. I stopped my watch when I stretched/drank/took shirt off, etc. so I had a few breaks. Didn't have any gatorade or gell and ran out of water to soon.

At about mile 11 1/2 I wished I had only gone 12. Then at the botton of the hill on 800 North in Orem, one mile from home, I stopped and stood there for about 15 seconds thinking about how if I had the cell phone I might call for a ride. Last mile was about 7:25. Felt like I was going to throw-up when I stopped in front of my house.

It's been to many weeks since I've gone over 10. I felt really good for 10.
