My joining this blog has been a long time coming. I finally joined (and
it will surprise many of you that I actually did). This is quite the step forward for me. I have never joined any online social anything. I don't even have a facebook page (I know... totally old-fashioned). My profile has some
details from my past. For my first post, I want to express
appreciation to all of you who have helped me in the still-building
process of dragging my rear end back in shape. I cannot thank you
enough! I have learned a great deal from many of you. I owe a special
thanks to my Utah County training crew who put up with my need to do 5am
runs. Also, for some reason, certain fellow runners have been calling
me "puma." Maybe it's because I remind them of the first 2 letters
spelled a different way. At any rate, I've decided to embrace the
nickname and roll with it (hence the title of my blog). Had a
great run with a great crew at Jordan River Parkway in Riverton this
past Saturday. Some did 20 miles. I cut it short at 15 miles to play
it safe because of some hamstring irritation. I felt great and strong.
Could definitely have kept going. What an honor to be part of such a
talented group! Really enjoyed our conversations and the miles flew by
because of them. This morning I did an easy 10-mile loop from Scott's house in Highland with Scott, Reed, Mike, and Toni. This evening I did hamstring and upper-body weights.
