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 Birthday to our boy Jannie Sue (aka Jansen)!                  

    I can't believe our 3rd child is 17 years old!

This one is of  Camron and Rurika.  We have seen many pictures with both of them together.  This one had two differences....a doggy and a ring!  Wedding bells will be ringing for our oldest son in August!

And I ran today.

Everything from yesterday was suppose to be on this day.  May 24th is Jansen's birthday.  Monday Tom and I were down at our condo getting things ready to rent it out.  We spent our running time doing manual labor instead.

This is our second son, Tyler, who is serving an LDS mission in Denmark.  He will be home in 6 months!  Can't wait to see him again!

Tom and I decided to change things up a bit this morning.  It was a nice run except with the change we had to run the last 2 miles up hill and into the wind.  But the sun was peeking over the mountain and there was NO RAIN!  Yay!

Just as we were about to hit 6 miles and be home we ran into 3 of my ladies from the Iwanna group so I turned to run with them for a minute.  It's so nice to see them out and continuing on with the running!

This morning Tom and I drove out to Harry's Hill for some Ragnar preparation.  We both went up and down ole Harry three times.  This was my first time for that particular hill workout this year.  The first time up I was thinking I should have warmed up a bit more before starting.  But by the time I was at the top I was feeling good and the workout turned out great.  

I'm a little happy/sad that today is the last day of school.  It's always nice to have more time for other things, but it won't take long for the kids to start saying, "I'm bored."

OK, that was fun.  I haven't done just a good ole very easy run for awhile.  Did a few on my own then helped a few of my friends who have continued with the running program.  Six miles with an average pace of 10:15....nice to do once in a while.

Our family likes to go down to Ephraim for Scandinavian Days each year.  The parade starts at 10:00 and it takes us about an hour to get there, so we had to get up bright and early to be able to get the long run in, get cleaned up and get down there in time.  

Tom and I ran about 8 together and then met up with the rest of the group.  At that point he took off with the speedy guys and I could either lag behind them or go with the slower group.  I chose to stay with the slower group but they didn't have much mojo today so I took off and ended up doing most of the rest of mine alone.  

Then we enjoyed the day down with family and friends.  This was the first time in many years that the weather was just about perfect for Scandinavian Days!  Not too hot and no rain!  

Had lunch at Roy's Pizza and Pasta with the Lee clan and sat at the park all day with the Stilson clan...the best of both family worlds when you grew up in the same area!  Very nice day, but we are now tired!
