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.

Six miles on Kuhni Road with Tom.  

I just read pthomas' report for today and have to agree with him about the snow and ice.  It was nice to be down in St. George and have clear roads to run on.  The temps are bearable with the right gear, but snow and ice all around is getting a bit old! 

A song that has been on my mind lately is "Open Up Your Heart and let the Sunshine in."  Have any of you heard of that song?  It's an old children's song that came back to my mind the other day and is staying with me.  Tom had never heard of it before.  It's a cute song with some good words to get you through hard times. (and no sun times!)  It kind of gets stuck in your mind and gives you something to think about in case you get tired of singing B-I-N-G-O while you are running.

Hey Kim it was great to have you come out and run with me today! It's so nice with our work/home/kids situation right now that we can work in these weekday runs during the time of day where we might actually see some of that sunshine you talked about.
