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.

With the dream of a man many years ago we were able to have a little bit of a sleep in day today.  Thanks MLK.....for the day and the dream.

Tom did 3 then picked me up for my five.  It was almost 40 degrees...hard to know how to dress.  I was a bit warm, could had followed Tom's lead and worn shorts.  Oh well.  It rained for a bit on the last mile.  I was kind of wanting it to dump on us just for fun but it didn't do much.

4.3 miles with Tom and the big, full moon setting in the western sky.  Quite nice.

Four miles with about 10 strides thrown in to help me be ready for Saturday.  I will be running the St. George 5K with several other people but the only one I am trying to beat is myself!  Can I do it?......I'm hoping the answer to that is.,...Yes I can!

I think 2 or 22 is now my favorite number!  Today, Jan. 22, I did my best 5K at 22:22!  My previous race PR was 24:04 so I would have been happy with anything in the 23s.  I was thinking I could maybe sneak in at 22:59....but I was able to pull off 22:22 and feel mostly good doing it!

Work WILL win when wishy washy wishing won't! 

Thanks to Coach Tom for helping me through this past 12 week 5K training cycle.

Thanks to you guys for your support!
