Running Accomplishments:

I started running in the fall of 2007.  I truly believe I was inspired to start running and I have seen some very big blessings come my way because of following that inspiration.

Ran Boston Marathon 2013 & 2014.  My favorite PRs:  2011 at the SG 1/2 and 5K where I ran the 5K in 22:22.    2013 Nebo 1/2 (downhill) 1:36:15

Short-Term Running Goals:

 

Long-Term Running Goals:

Running throughout life with Tom. Staying healthy and happy.

 Learn from others, learn from myself, work hard, do my best, enjoy!

On running and on life.....

On occasion we need to make a second effort - and a third effort, and a fourth effort, and as many degrees of effort as may be required to accomplish what we strive to achieve.

Have you ever had the dream where you got to work and realized you forgot your pants?  Well, that is what happened to Tom today.  (OK, so it was just his running pants).  So since I was taking them into him I ran 5 miles with him in Provo.  It was a great run even though there were a few blocks we could have used some snowshoes on.  We both had our own Garmin on so we may differ slightly on numbers, but here's what I have.  Overall time=48:34  Overall pace=9:43

Hey Michelle and Lybi, It looks like Beth has decided it is best for her to hold off for awhile on a half marathon.  I'd still like to try to keep up with you two at Painter's if that is OK.

Awesome run today Kim! Sure was nice to have you join, you're getting dang fast! I really think by spring/summer 9-min miles will be the norm and sub-9s won't be uncommon on your faster runs. Good JOB!!

Thanks Coach! I appreciate all you do to help me improve! Hopefully Painter's will be great for both of us!

Nice job today Kim, I agree with your Husband you are on your way to some faster times and pace, you are both an inspiration to me so keep it up...

Kim, I'm sorry about the friend, but thrilled that you will be able to join us! I am going to need to have all of the moral support from running friends that I can get so the more the better! It should be a fun time!! (WHOA...my idea of fun in the last few months is sure changing....I used to say lunch with friends and shopping, scrapbooking, scrubbing toilets....now I've gone to 2 plus hours of torture followed by sore muscels, what have I turned into?) HE,HE!
