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.

Not the best day....started off with a fall in the dark on my way to be with the Iwanna girls.  Later my daughter ended up staying home sick again.  We also had married kids coming that I wanted to visit with and have clean bathrooms for.  So I kept coming up with reasons for not wanting to get my 10 miler in today.  As you can see I gave into all the excuses. I went out and got 2 miles but just didn't want to go more. I am indeed mad at myself but I'm not going to beat myself up for it.  I just was not feeling it today and I didn't want to do it. I am planning on doing some tomorrow when I usually have a rest day to kind of make up for my slackerness of today.  

The end

I think we are allowed a couple of those from time to time. I am officially calling this week a step back week. Nice job getting in two!

Thanks Chad. I guess I was in need of a step back week. I was able to get out today and get my 16 miler in so I am feeling a bit better about myself.
