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.

Another nice morning!  I'm going to be grateful for every single nice morning we get from here on out!  I'm afraid they are limited!

Tom and I did some hills today.  We both did 9 x 60 sec repeats.  I wish I could get as far as him up the hill in 60 secs but I feel good with my effort too.  The last two were my fastest and I was pooped at the end.

Four in the sunshine alone today.  

I will admit that I am sad that Mitt Romney did not win the election yesterday.  But I will also show my support to President Obama and pray hard for him and our country!

My back and the weather tried really hard to get me not to run today but I did not let those things stop me!  I must have worn heels too long yesterday.  I had a rough night and had a very hard time moving enough to even get my shoes on.  I went out with Tom and the gang but it just wasn't going to work to try to run with them.  I told them all to go on and I would see what happened.  At that point it was raining and windy and everyone was wondering if we are all crazy (yes).  They went on their way and I tried to loosen things up.  After a while I was able to get a nice little run going.  Grabbed Rui for some running rain time and ran into the rest of the gang on their tail end of 6 miles.  So I wasn't too far behind.

Later today I was painting our downstairs bathroom.  I came up to let my doggy out back for a bit and noticed a trashed fence.  I knew the weather was yucky but I didn't think we had a little tornado in our back yard.  I went out for closer inspection and found that it was a hit and run.  There were tire tracks up on my lawn and into the fence!  Grrrr!  Now I'm watching all vehicles and looking for a nice dent or splinters in the front right end of a big truck.  (that is what the tires seemed to be from.)

A foot of snow fell here and broke trees and filled driveways up!  Tom and I spent lots of time shoveling and pulling branches from our tree out of our neighbor's yard.
