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 out in the early, mild morning with Tom.  I need to be more trusting of the temps.  When it is in the 40s I still get nervous if the sun is not shining so I always overdress!  Could have been in shorts like Tom was.  It felt really good this morning.  Did a few striders and some hills.  I love the improvement I have seen since I started running again last September.  

I also went out on my wogging date with Stacie just now.  We do a mile, about 1/2 of it running.  So I will add the running .5 to my miles.  I can already see a difference with her ability in the few times we have gone out.  We are going to open up this wogging date to all the ladies in our ward and try to get more of them out doing a healthy morning routine.  So maybe next week we will have more of a crowd.

Kim, what is wogging? Is there a dog involved?

Good job on the run!

What is WOW??

Kim -- great idea, getting other ladies involved in your wogging date, you are awesome!

Nice run!

Clay, wogging is our term for walking/jogging.

Guest: WOW is Brent's term for all the winter training. He coined the phrase "Warriors of winter". Now that we are getting some springtime once in a while I am hoping all that hard, cold work paid off!

Bonnie, Thanks for the support all the time! You are definitely one of the WOWs!

Sorry Kim it was not taken in La Verkin Utah. It was taken when Dustin and I went to Maui for Spring Break last year. It was a wonderful vacation for us! Thanks for the encouragement too!

You are such a great example! Stacie is doing great! Nice miles today - you will do awesome at the Striders half.
