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.

Personal:
Going to St. George? Bag the hotel and stay in one of our condos instead!
Some with Tom, all with Kay and a bit with Bishop Cook. Bishop is doing so well in his plan to get ready for SGM next year. He just turned 60 years old and decided to start running so he can do the marathon with his boys next year.
Tom and I went down to the HS track this morning for some 1/4 mile repeats. I was informed I should try for 6 - 10 repeats with them being in the 1:45-1:55 range. We warmed up around the streets for a couple of miles and then both did our thing. I ended up with 8 repeats in the 1:46 - 1:52 range. My 7th was 1:46 and my 8th was 1:47. It felt nice to have a little cool down jog and then a lap of walking. Doing speed work in the winter isn't too bad if we have weather like this morning. A little less wind would be nice but we live in Spanish Fork so that is just part of what we get.
Tom and I went down to the Dixie Center and ran on the trail. Lots and lots of people out on this Thanksgiving morning! Nice to see others out and about. Missed being with our own running friends in SF but we are enjoying our time at the condo with Tani, Tia, Tyler and Chelsey. We sure wish Jansen, Camron and Rurika were with us though!
Tom and I had a nice run up and then a nicer run down Snow Canyon this morning! It is so nice to just sleep in a bit and head out into such beautiful surroundings!
