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

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.

It was a warm morning today, I'm glad I got up early to get the run in.  Tom and I mixed up the route a bit for a little wild and crazy fun.  We separated at the hills, he was doing a few hill sprints and I had no desire for that.  On the way home I saw Annette (one of the 2012 Iwannarunna gals) heading out on mile road.  I told her I would go get Rui and then come and run her home.  I caught her at the top of mile road so I got my good 5 miles in and then about a mile and a half with her.  So happy to see her continuing on....and usually all by herself!  Way to go Annette!

Julie and Natalie are 2 of the 2012 IWR 5K gals who have kept going and are working on a 10 K training plan.  They have been so consistent and are doing very well.  This week Natalie is out of town so Julie asked if I would come and run with her today and Thursday.  It was nice to go out with her and visit on a perfect running morning.  I did 4.1 with her then a 3 mile progression run.  Rui's time with me was a bit of a cool down run and then a very nice walk with the sun shining over the mountain at us.  What a nice start to this day.

Another fun opportunity to pace a half today!  Beautiful course and fun to help others!  Its always a bit scary when you know people are relying on you to bring them in at a certain time, especially in canyons with glitches on the Garmin.  I would like to have come in more perfect, but I would rather take them in a minute before their time than a minute after.  

As for my own goals...I am exactly where I wanted to be at this point.  Since this is my first year doing more than one marathon a year I wanted to be sure to play it right so I could come to this point feeling great and no injuries.  I hope to be able to go into SGM training now with a little more speed work than I have been doing the past few months.
