Personal:

I used to run for BYU, but only after trying out three times and finally walking on, so I was never a star. However, it was wonderful to run with great people and under Coach Shane. When you run with fast people, you can't help to improve! I graduated BYU in 1998, and didn't run a race until 2002, after having my second child. My hiatus and other crazy life commitments have made my competitive running suffer, but the last couple of years I have tried to get back into it the best I can. I have been married since 1996, to Paul Lowry, who is a runner himself. I have three boys (my three rascals), ages 12, 10, and 8.

After a great 2008 season, I was injured and eventually diagnosed and cross-diagnosed with Ankylosing Spondylitis, a type of arthritis disease, which precludes running for all but the most stubborn.  So I am on medications, trying to stay healthy, and seeing my PT often.  And running!  Now beating the streets in Hong Kong.

Ran a workout with Ali, hadn't really planned to, but she thought I was going to come in the morning, so I thought I would help her out.  I did about 3.5k warm up.

We did 12x300m, with 200m jogs between.  The 300m's were 59 (1:46 rest), 1:00 (1:37), 59 (1:33), 56 (2:05), 57 (1:48), 57 (1:56), 57 (1:47), 57 (1:51), 56 (2:03), 56 (2:08), 55 (2:04), 52 that's right, 52.55 for the last one.  Suck it Hong Kong humidity!

5k cool down.
