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 alone while kids at school.  1 mile warm-up. 3.8 mile tempo 24:52, avg 6:35 pace, 1 mile slow then same 3.8 mile loop tempo 24:55, avg 6:36 pace, 1/2 mile cooldown.  Was happy to have the same time for both loops.  Felt better on the second one.

Warmed up 2 miles, ran the BYU Homecoming Race, cooled down a mile, got my medal at the awards ceremony, then ran 6 miles home.

I was pleased with my time, as this is my fastest road race 5k I can remember.  (Avg 6:15 min/mile) Although I usually only do a 5k when I'm so out of shape that the 10k seems too long. 

This was a spur of the moment race for me.  I didn't even know about it until a couple days before and thought I wouldn't do it until I changed my mind right before I went to bed the night before.  I'm glad I did.  It was a fun morning.
