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.

Nice walk on the Millcreek trail around the pond with Ardath.   She told me all about the Mesquite Half she did.  That will be a perfect recovery run for me next year after the Pony Express.

I did my Old Mill route, quite a bit of walking today, and then took Odee for a walk in the park. 

Tonight we are going to the TransSiberian Orchestra!  This is my favorite concert of the year.  I am riding down on Trax with Ardath and her granddaughter and meeting Harold downtown. 

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!!

Started from my house, just before sunrise, ran up to Wasatch Blvd. and then headed south to Draper, ended up at the Draper Park.  Harold drove to Draper Park and walked back towards me with Odee. On our way to home we drove past In and Out and it was opened, so we had burgers for breakfast. YUM! I had a burger protein style, which is lettuce instead of a bun, it was great!  I saw 2 deer and a big buck.   I put handwarmers in my gloves and it made all the differance in the world. 

Still not sure who to cheer for today.  I went to BYU-Hawaii, but I also used to do massage for the U of U football team.... oh, well, whatever.....
