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. |

Indoor warmup: walked 5 min, then stretching. Warmed up by myself a bit on the SF track, then met TylerS. Melody and Mack bailed. 2.31 miles warmup. Plan was 6 x 1600m repeats, with 800m rest. My pace range was 5:50-6:03, and my coach said to do 5-7, so I chose 6 and wanted just hit in the slower part of the pace range. It was windy on the track, so after the first mile repeat, Tyler and I traded quarters. 1 - 5:58, 4:56 rest 2 - 5:59, 4:52 rest 3 - 5:58, 5:00 rest 4 - 5:58, 5:01 rest 5 - 5:56, 5:15 rest 6 - 5:55 and done! The fifth was hard, the 6th was worse. The good news is that 6:00 pace seems hard but not like a sprint or like V02 max. So I think I am getting more fit! I am so grateful to be able to run like this again. I have to soak it up while it lasts. I appreciate Tyler hanging in during the workout. It takes alot of resolve to do mile repeats, and I appreciate the company, especially in the wind. Marion and Luz came over last night with killer cakes. I am still indulging. I think the cakes made me extra fast! Hooray for sugar!

Was supposed to run 60-70 either easy, or easy except 10 minutes hard at the end. Well, last night I had tooth pain, where I have had pain for 4 weeks, and couldn't fall back asleep for a while. Combine that with my semi-sore throat sickness and I felt like crum. So I dogged through 10 miles, 8:25 ave pace. Core in the evening.

| Ran on my own for 7.5 miles, then met up with some new SF folks and ran with them. I felt better today than Thursday. 15 miles in 7:59 ave pace. Did a tiny throw up at the end of the run, not because I was running hard. That was weird. Oh yeah, had an uncomfortable, 2.5 hour root canal yesterday. My second son was baptized today, and we had family over for pizza, lasagna, salad, and a very fancy, very toxic strawberry cake made by Marion, with a gummy bear on each piece of cake. She is such a generous friend. I had some **nice** sharp pain in my teeth when I bite, but only every 10th bite or so, but when it happens I actually jump, it is quite jolting, but it subsides quick. Just enough to keep me on my toes. Nap in the afternoon and core workout in the evening. I am still throaty. |
