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.

Today got to be a very gentle 5 mile run through the river bottoms. Tom and I bumped into the Lewis' and ran with them for a few miles.

I can't believe how worn out I was yesterday! I guess after a week where I almost hit 48 miles, a 15 mile run on Saturday, 5 hours of church on Sunday, (without much of a nap), and then tackling Loafer Canyon Monday morning just exhausted me. I am happy to say I slept pretty good last night though. I am keeping it very easy tomorrow too in preparation for the 10K on Thursday.

Sounds like a theme. Everyone seems to be feeling out of sorts in some way today. Must be the Tuesday blues! You have had a lot of great runs lately, so it sounds like you had the perfect workout today. GOOD LUCK on Thursday!

Kim, yes, I have a pump, patch kit, water bottles, lights, etc. I have been mountain biking for years. Hey, if you can run, the heck with the bike. Nothing beats running. A bike ride can be good for recovery after a hard race.

Stay Kool, Run smooth and fast, B of BS Rools out (time prediction 49:20)

Oooohh! Thanks for that prediction Brent! I would love to live up to it! I will work my hardest to fulfill it! I would be happy with a 5 for the first number, a four would be amazing!

I will definitely do the run with you guys. If I need to I will bail when I get tired. That will be great to have you join us.
