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.

Beth surprised me with a new fleece face warmer that she had made!  I told her it was my most favorite Christmas present!  It felt so good to pull it up over my cheeks this morning when that wind was whipping at me AGAIN!  We were able to get 5 miles in today.  When I left her at her house I pushed toward the wind for an extra .50 just to prove to the wind and cold that I am woman hear me roar!

Quite bummed about the Moab half!  I thought for sure we would all be running that together this year.

I will be carrying Sylvia's gym bag at Moab. My lottery ticket was not a winner. 25 commando points for the great attitude about the wind.

By the way, I am going to take Christmas off from running. Sylvie is going to hide all my running shoes.

Kim, I'm sorry that we did not get into Moab! I guess that I have poor luck! So have you thought of a back up plan?

I should've known we'd get shafted when Tom joined the group--he's had terrible luck with lotteries! JUST KIDDING!!! We'll find some race we can all run in--just wait. I'm going to start a thread on the discussion board.

It is a bummer none of us got in to Moab. I didn't know you were coming for Painters? What kind of pace are you doing it at? I might be tempted to join you if it's slow enough for me to do as a training run. I'll have to get going if I'm going to be up to 13 by Jan 19th though!
