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.

Tom took me out to my very-first-ever-in-my-life track workout this morning.  We did 8x400s with a lap recovery between each one.  With warm up and cool down it ended up at 7 miles.  I was suppose to do the laps between 1:50 -2:00.  I was surprised at how consistent I was able to keep them.  I even kind of had fun with the whole workout. 

Here are my splits.

So that's that.

Nice job on the workout today Kim! I was surprised how easy it seemed for you. I'm thinking you're due for another boost in performance soon. I'm quite enjoying seeing you develop so quickly as a runner to be reckoned with!
