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.

There's no place like home!  As much fun as it is to go on vacation, it sure is nice to get back home! 

After a long car ride home yesterday (which included a car sick child the WHOLE way home) it was nice to get a good night's rest in our own bed and then get out for a run in our own stompin' grounds! 

We went out an hour later than our usual Saturday mornings and saw many more people out and about!  I don't know if it's cause it was a bit later or that more people are getting out with the nicer weather.  We actually had a Curtis sighting...don't usually see him since he seems to have to do most of his runs later in the afternoon. 

The animals and birds were out and about today too!  My favorite today was the big ole' rock chuck!  I thought he might be an otter there by the river, but as we searched pictures on the internet when we got home we think he was a rock chuck.  He didn't chuck any rocks at us, but he let us know he wasn't too fond of us getting very close to him.  There were also a few deer, some cows on the road a woodpecker and various other birds.

Now to my nephew,Weston's, wedding.  And a happy birthday to my cute SIL, Heidi and my equally cute neice, Jamie! 

The run itself felt OK to start with but really good the last half!  Nice to be able to get that in after a crazy week!
