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.

Happy Valentine's Day everyone! 

I took a few extra rest days last week for sick leave.  It was nice to get back out today even though the wind was as strong as ever!  It was especially nice that my best running buddy was able to go out with me for the first mile and run pain free!  Woo Hoo!

Oh the wind.  It was a bit nippy as we started out but once you get use to it it's just something to help give you a better workout.  Tom went out for 3 miles this morning.  I wanted him to go more with me but he wanted to err on the side of caution and keep things gradual.....probably the smart choice. 

On my last three miles I took it straight into the wind for a mile and a half and then enjoyed a fast mile and a half home.  I saw Doc. Ludlow up about a block ahead of me in my last .75 and my goal was to catch him before he turned to his house about .20 from my home.  It was getting close, he was almost there, I was just behind and I said "Hey Ludlow!"  Which made him turn just enough for me to reach my goal of catching him before the turn.  OK, I cheated a little bit, but not much.  : )

Six miles today....5 of them with Tom!  The wind was there but so was the sun!  It actually made me wonder how we are going to run as it gets warmer!

I'm sad to have been logging some big fat zeros lately but I am trying to avoid pneumonia again!  This dang cough gets really worked up when I go out and run in this much wind.  The temps are actually warmer but with the wind I end up regreting the run.  Hopefully by Monday things will be doing better.
