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.

Monday mornings are my day for an easy run that feels like a hard run for most of the miles.

I drove to the Pioneer Cemetery and started down 'middle' hill towards the trail.  I struggled my way up the trail, around the park and up to Jack Rabbit where I started with a few speedier spurts.  The first mile was a 7:47 pace but that was with a few good down hills to help me out.  A little further down I did a 7:26 pace quarter and a 7:47 pace half mile.  

Looking forward to meeting up with JaNae and Jody tomorrow.

Today was the first day of Payson Canyon down hill training!  I quite like it up there!  Ran with Michelle C again.  I finally found someone to run with good and she is moving away in a week and a half.  :o(

I am glad there were lots of people out there today to help me with this 20 miler!  I was happy for every conversation and bit of encouragement along the way!  We started off with a large group and added more along the way!  

To get 20 miles we start at the church...head down to Old Bishop's Storehouse...up tree lined road...to Osbourne's and our Gatorade stop....down the mile to junk mail...up zepher...around pretty little road (decided to leave Harry's Hill out today) back down zepher...to junk mail...back up the mile to Osbourne's and another Gatorade stop.....past the parading peacocks...down the hill to the trail....up the trail to a drink at the park and up to Dripping Rock......down and around the golf course....back past tree lined road and to Osbourne's one last time for a tiny swallow of water as it was all but gone by this time.....back past tree lined road...up the switchback.....down to the church....over to our house to pick up Rui and around the neighborhood for a bit to take it to twenty!

I am glad I took yesterday off.  With Thursday's downhill Payson run I needed a recovery day.  Plus this is a pretty high mileage week for me.  I have a few others coming up that will be a bit higher than this.  We will see if this year I can get at least a 3:45 at SGM.
