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.

Ran the first three miles with Beth and the last three alone. Beth hasn't been able to get out with me in quite awhile, it was great to have her with me again. She is about 9 weeks pregnant so she will probably keep things quite easy, but wants to run with me again about 3 times a week. It will be nice to have her back with me more often.

I listened to some conference talks on my mp3 today for the last three miles. I wasn't sure if that would keep me going or not, but it was great! One talk especially really reached out and grabbed me! I couldn't quite control my emotions as I listened and ran. I'm sure people who passed me wondered if they should stop and help me out.

I really like how you completely enjoy the experience of running, whether it be looking at full moons or listening to conference talks as you run. Sometimes I get so focused on the outcome of the workout that I fail to notice what is going on around me and enjoy the run

Thanks Emily,

I just went and looked at your blog. I don't know how to do all that fancy stuff, (fartleks, striders, ect.), yet, so I just run and look and listen to things around me. Just keeping it fun and enjoyable as I continue to build my base miles to hopefully about 40/week.

Hey Kim! You are an inspiration! I should put some conference talks on my IPOD today...
