Personal:

I started running at age 40 (14 years ago!)  I am married to Harold, he is a super supportive husband and we enjoy running and biking the trails along the Wasatch Front together. Between us we have 7 children and 9 grandchildren.  I am really having fun trying new races in scenic parts of Utah, I am a newbie in the ultrarunning world, I am slow, but love everything about it!  I have a lot to learn,but I am enjoying the journey.

6 miles on the Porter Rockwell trail this morning with Ardie and then 5 miles on Wasatch around noon.  It sure feels good to be outside!

 

I just signed up for the Park City Half, Bryce Canyon Half and the Mesquite Half, I am hoping Harold will be up for the Little Grand Canyon Half, I better check with him before I sign up. That would be my one  "new" race for the year.  Of course I am already signed up for Red Mountain and St. George, should be a  fun year!

2 treadmill miles and Jackie's strength training video.

I just signed up for the Little Grand Canyon Half, so this year I have a total of 4 half marathons, one 30K and one marathon.  I think that will be it, but you never know what might tempt me.

I ran up to the mouth of BCC and met up with a fellow St. George 10 year club member, he remembered me from the banquet two years ago and I couldn't remember him at all. I really  am forgetful.  His name was Clark Jolley. He told me I lived by Butler Park, yep, that's me.

I ran from my house to Liberty Park, about 10 miles of my run was on the SL marathon course.  It was fun to be with the crowd. I felt great, no soreness at all. I am a little more optimistic about Red Mountain next week. I am real excited about running in the warm sunny weather, and getting out of the city!
