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.

OK, so my back has given me grief forever!  I am miserable from about 2 o'clock every single morning until I get up and start moving!  It has been driving me crazy so I finally decided to make an appointment for a chiropractor, even though they scare me.  My appointment is for this Friday.   This past weekend while we were at our condo in St. George I realized that I always sleep great down there on that bed.  So when we got home I had Tom and Camron change our mattress out with our guest bedroom mattress and I have slept pretty much pain free for the past two nights!  My other one was just too soft.  So now I'm thinking I don't need my chiro appointment.  Now the bad news....while we were down in SG Tom tweaked his back as he was carrying in a cooler and a suitcase at the same time.  So now he is having the back troubles and wasn't able to get out with me this morning.  : (  But the good news is, I have a chiro appt. available for Friday that he can now use.

Anyway, my run this morning felt great.  This week I plan to try really hard to keep all my miles 9:30 or slower.  Then off to work on my new goal....

Six miles today. Took the doggy out for a couple and then brought him back to finish the rest. He gets too worn out for 6 miles.

Today I was grateful I knew how to say "bathroom" in Spanish. : )

I miss my running buddy. Get better soon!

A couple with my short legged doggy and the rest solo.  The first few miles I felt like I was in slow motion and dragged along.  The last few were much more enjoyable.

Today I.....

slept in.... : )

ran in some sun... : )

learned from the chiropractor that I am going to have to make some changes with running in order to avoid serious issues down the road...  : (

went to the 4th grade rondezvous and got to help barter with pelts... : )

saved us $185.00 by fixing our toilet myself instead of calling a plumber.... : )

Today I wanted to get 12 but ran out of time as I was planning to meet for the search of Chad Stilson in Springville.  Got home just in time to take a bite to eat and a quick shower.  I have felt a strong desire to help out on this missing boy as he has the same last name as my maiden name.  I'm not sure if we are related or not, but I sure want him to be found soon.  I went door to door with flyers and information for about 3 hours.  For more information on Chad please go here.  http://helpthesechildren.ning.com/photo/chad-ray-stilson-12-1?context=featured
