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.

Kellie P. joined in on three of my miles today. It's great to have her company. She is doing good. Very nice morning out. Heats up by 7:00. Saturday's race helped me learn that I need to get out in the heat and run once a week or so. I can't imagine how you St. George and Arizona runners do it! But I guess you wonder how we get out all winter here in our conditions.

I'm sending in my guaranteed St. George Marathon entrance today! =) If I hadn't won that on Saturday, I wonder if I would have had the guts to pay out $800.00 for the Dixie Care and Share Charity auction that ended Saturday night. They were "giving" away guaranteed entrances to the top 10 bidders. I had been keeping an eye on it in case of emergency. The final winners were all between $800-$1000!!! That's great news for Dixie Care and Share!

Now I've got to get ready and go help clean the church. Our ward has the duties today. Then laundry, laundry, laundry...then finish up the day with a nice family home evening at the local swimming pool.

Yeah Kim- I am still in awe that you won that entry! You are SMOKIN'! have fun with all you need to do today! I did laundry Saturday afternoon as rehabilitation from my run on Sat. All the up and down the stairs has my quads screaming for mercy :)

Are you gonna take that $800+ and party?

Hi Marion-

I think I'm still a little bit in awe too! However, I was really feelin' it! I really knew they were going to call my name! About the $800 bucks...I've been thinking of all the things we could do with it...

Great job today! I hear ya with the heat. I was so grateful for the shade on Saturday.

Sounds like you have a fun day planned - Enjoy your family time!

I was just thinking if you had gotten the st george entry and came to check it out.

Congrats! I know you are so excited. You are going to love it:)

Good luck with your marathon training. Im sure money in auction went to a good cause,but I always have to think if I really want to do it when a race cost gets above $25
