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.

If you have read Tom's blog entry today you know that his father passed away yesterday.  If you haven't read his blog today you might want to turn to it and read a touching tribute from a loving son to a wonderful father.  We will be heading down to Ephraim in about an hour to meet with Tom's siblings to make the final arrangements. It its a hard time, but also a joyous time as we think of his reunion with Tom's sweet mother who passed away almost 15 years ago.  My run was a time to reflect on the wonderful example of a very faithful and devoted son of God!  I love you Dad!

On my run today I ran up and down the hill on scenic drive and 1240 south 5 times in a row.  I am going to try to do that a few times a week to get a little more love for hills.  My times for each mile were 9:07, 9:36, 10:02, 9:22, 4:04 for the last half mile.
Overall pace 9:23, overall time 42:14

Kim, I was sorry to hear about Tom's Dad, from Tom's tribute it sounds like he was one special guy... I think you have good husband & father as well, you are both a shinning example to me even though I don't know you that well, I feel like I do...

My prayers are with you both.

Kim, normally, I would give you major commando points for the hills, these commando points go to Tom's dad for his wonderful way with people
