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.

I think 2 or 22 is now my favorite number!  Today, Jan. 22, I did my best 5K at 22:22!  My previous race PR was 24:04 so I would have been happy with anything in the 23s.  I was thinking I could maybe sneak in at 22:59....but I was able to pull off 22:22 and feel mostly good doing it!

Work WILL win when wishy washy wishing won't! 

Thanks to Coach Tom for helping me through this past 12 week 5K training cycle.

Thanks to you guys for your support!

Wow!! I was thinking low 23's not low 22's. Great Race!

Your coach better treat you to a nice restaurant.

Yay! Thanks guys and gals! This was definitely a satisfying race for me!

Tom, you know you've got to be much speedier to beat our TeNaNa!

Terry, DQ in Beaver on the way home...does that count?

Burt, 22....plus 22, close enough!

From Kelli on Sun, Jan 23, 2011 at 21:12:17 from 71.219.84.215

GREAT JOB KIM!!!!! Your hard work is paying off, that is a ton of time to shave off of a 5k PR! Sorry I missed running in to you guys.

From Walter on Sun, Jan 23, 2011 at 21:54:01 from 24.10.169.110

Kim, Great to get a Maters (oops its not so bad) win! You should sign up for the USATFLDR and get some points and cash for running! Thanks for the great hospitality you and Tom gave us down there. We had a blast!

From Brent on Mon, Jan 24, 2011 at 07:54:01 from 168.178.30.219

Kim, 500 commando points for the PR, very good effort. I like your comments, I am doing this on my own, nice mental boost.

Stay Kool, B of BS Rools out

Kim ~ AWESOME race! CONGRATZ on the PR!!! I love the #2. In Chinese it phonetically means EASY!! And you made it look so easy!
