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.

Just me and my music out on another beautiful fall morning! I love having a garmin so I can change my route up as needed for distance or distraction. It is amazing how many new subdivisions keep cropping up all over. I didn't take Rui with me today, he seems to like the 3-4 mile range best.

Sasha, you told me to keep it at 11:30 per mile. I am able to do that for the first two miles, but I always find myself creeping toward 11:00, (sometimes even in the 10s), and feeling good. I feel like I am quite comfortable at 11:10. If I keep it between 11:00-11:30 does that sound ok? I really want to do what's best, I do not want injuries. This is today's miles.

10:43 (didn't realize this until the beep at the end of the mile)

Good job on the miles today! About the pace....when you say "quite comfortable" does that mean you could carry on a conversation without the huff-n-puff factor?

I was thinking about that as I went along. I knew it was a question that would be asked. I tried to carry on a little conversation or sing along with the tunes when I felt like no one was looking. Around 11:10 I feel like I can do that. Maybe Saturday we can get a few miles in together and you can help me determine if it is comfortable enough.

Thanks Kim! The pictures were just taken by our daugter on a not great camera, it's just that paradise just is beautiful with very little help!

You need to go to Hawaii! It's the bomb!
