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.

When it was 5 degrees outside Tom and I decided to sign up for the Revolution Run at the Olympic Oval.  Today was not 5 degrees but it was windy so I guess it at least got us out of the wind for this run.

We just did a gentle half marathon with no pressure what-so-ever.  That is the nice way to do things. I really don't know what our official time would be but it makes me put something in.   I thought it might seem long doing 48 laps for a 13.1 but it really wasn't that bad.  It was fun to see lots of different shapes, sizes, ages and paces out there all doing their best!  

It was also fun to watch the speed skaters out there practicing.  I talked with one of them afterward.  She said she was a coach and would love to have me come and do it.  I would be very tempted if I lived closer to the oval.  It looked awesome!

Nice job getting around the track so many times.

Thanks Terry! If I lived closer I would learn how to be a speed skater and get around faster! That was so fun to watch the people on the ice. I would love to do that!
