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. Favorite Blogs: |

Harold thought I was crazy this morning, he asked if I was going over to the gym to work out and I said, "No way! I'm hitting the road!" It was 22 degrees when I went out, pretty nippy! I had to wear my yaxtrax, there was lots of black ice, so I ran very cautiously, I can still slip in my yaxtrax, but they do help a lot.
I am worried about a new little pain in my foot, I have noticed it for acouple of weeks, but am always afraid to give it a voice for fear it will give it more power. But it goes around my heel and along side my foot. I still have PF( this is all on my left foot). I can usually run thru the pain pretty well, but it bothers me all day, especially when I get up from sitting. I have been told I have worn down the pads on my feet, due to age and running for so many years, I wonder if I have done something to the bone. Oh, well, if it continues I will get it checked out.

I thought it was 18 degrees this morning, but got in the car to drive to my flatter route and it was 14!!!! I was plenty warm except for my fingers, I kept telling myself I would go to REI this morning and then I drove home and put on some old ski gloves and ran in my neighborhood and it they were toasty and warm. To heck with paying the big bucks and having cool gloves, on those days it drops below 20, I will wear my old puffy ski gloves that have been sitting in a box unused in years! My new Black Diamond jacket kept me toasty. This morning I wore my silk long underwear from REI (they are super thin) and then a cool max shirt and regular running pants and my new jacket, it is amazing how comfortable you can be with the right gear. Oh, I had on a head band and a beanie and a gaiter too. TAAA DAA!!! I wanted to make sure my gear was just right for the Bloggers Lehi run on SAT.!! I can't wait!
Have a great day!! | Comments(7) |

I did muscle up this morning, I am thinking that by taking a break from running on Tue and Thur and doing muscle-up and yoga, my feet are going to thank me!
I am anxious to check on all your blogs and see what kind of winter runs you did today! | Comments(7) |

This is hardly worth mentioning,but I did one mile on the indoor track at the gym, it is so windy and cold outside. I put off going so late, that was all I had time for. I really needed a good workout to make up for all the holiday treats I am enjoying, but oh, well, Happy Holidays!
I am pooping out on the run tomorrow in Lehi, I think it is going to be real windy and stormy. Good luck to you die hards that make it, I will be anxious to get your report. Drive safe too! | Comments(10) |
| | I thought I would wake up to blizzard, it looked pretty good out so Harold and I took Odee for a mile walk in the park, and then we walked over to the spa and did 2 miles around the track and watched the little kids below playing Jr. Jazz. We walked home and I felt like I had just warmed up and the weather was unbelieveably nice so I took off and did a 4 mile run. My heels were feeling pretty bad though, I was doing the tip-toe run and dodging ice, a very pokey pace, but I enjoyed my run outside. This was a super low mile week for me, I need to crank it up for Painters, I can't believe it is just around the corner, and I am not ready. | Comments(4) |
