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.

Whoa! It was d-a-r-k this moring!  Tom and I got a nice scare from a deer that we couldn't see who decided to bound out from hiding just as we approached!  Gave us a little heart rate hike and then a little chuckle!

Good ole' 6 mile loop in the dark and wind with Tom.  : )  One kitty came running out in front of us...luckily it was just a regular old kitty and not a pew kitty!

The first two miles we were able to enjoy a beautiful full moon! 

The next two miles we were able to enjoy some of the meanest canyon winds uphill and into our faces. 

The final two miles we were able to enjoy a very stiff help home. 

Down in the river bottoms we passed an old woodshed that is usually dark but had lights in it this morning.  So Tom starts telling me stories of ax murderers while the wind is howling and the beautiful full moon is now set behind the western mountains.  Just a bit spooky! 

Monday morning I am starting something fun!  : )

What a great way to start this Saturday!  Tom and I joined in with several of the SF runners this morning for a lot of somber and fun chit-chat!  Doc. Ludlow just returned from Japan on Wed.  They were actually in the Sendai area, luckily about 6 miles in from the coast.  He had a lot of first hand accounts to tell us, some heartwarming and some just sad.  We are grateful him and his wife were able to return safely and leave knowing all of their family were safe.  We have also been able to hear from most of our Japanese friends and learn of their safety.  What a week.  And what a road they have ahead of them!

Later in the run we got to have the laughter buttons pushed several times!  Can't help but have fun when you run with Bob and Dave!  I swear I want to make a comic strip about those two and their running adventures!  British Bob and Cowboy Dave! 

Hurried home to get girls ready for piano judging and final performance of Robin Hood.  Later we will enjoy some time with Jimmer and the BYU gang.  Hopefully they can continue to dance their way into the final 16 and beyond! 

Looking forward to having our oldest boy and his cute Japanese girlfriend with us for the day!  Can't wait to give them a hug!  We've only talked to them on the phone since all this craziness has been going on.  Her family lives in Japan and her sister was in the Sendai area when the earthquake and tsunami hit.  They were not able to hear from her for a few days and feared for her safety. 

Kimmer, signing out!
