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.

Today is the day!  Am I one of the lucky ones to get in on the lottery for SGM?  I've been feeling quite antsy about it all!  I really hope to see my name on the list!  I won't be near a computer all day, so it's going to bug me wondering if they have the list up or not.  On the home page it says it should be around 5:00.  Good luck to all wanting in on it too!

Tom and I went 6 miles this morning and then he added a few more.  It was a very enjoyable run.  I have really enjoyed every run this week!  I love the excitement of official training and learning.  I am also trying to be more observant of all the beautiful things around me as I have the opportunity of getting out and doing something that so many people can't or don't do.  I have also started to find little reasons to send a thank you card or a thinking of you card to others.  It helps bring a great spirit of joy to your own life and takes your mind off of your own trials and struggles.  I like a little saying that Tom reminded me of the other day.  "Each day is a gift, that is why it is called the present!"  Enjoy your "present" today!

You can always run TOU if you do not get into St. George.
