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. |

| Hello! Yes I have still been running, it's just been a struggle to blog. I will catch up! Ran 6.08k in the morning nice and easy. In the evening did about 27.5k (17.1 mile) run, last 5k fast (3:52/k pace). No sun and ok temperature with some wind made it feel not bad when running easy, though when I started running hard the heat did get to me a bit. It was 27C at the beginning dropping to 26C by the end, 80% humidity at the beginning, 85% at the end. This is my longest run since my race, and my knees and one hip could feel it. It felt like extra weight to be honest, a lot like when I was training for my first marathon (started at 150# but was down to 133# by the end of the training cycle). Paul and I have started fat camp again. When he is motivated to eat right it really helps me. We are both tracking our eating on the new Super Tracker developed by the US government, which is much slicker than their prior rendition, mypyramidtracker. I like it alot, it shows what you have eaten graphically multiple ways as you in put your eating on the same screen. I want to lose some post-Italy weight so I can race well for the two races I plan on doing in Utah in July/Aug. |

| Accidentally went out the door without my watch so I was free to go as slow as I wanted. Due to my longer run last night I had a hard time sleeping, so I was so tired this morning, tired from getting only 5 hours of sleep, and body tired from the evening workout. So it was a good day to be watchless, though I think it made the first k seem to drag. I started my run with Paul, and looped back a couple of times for him to make sure he didn't get lost. Ended up with about 13.8k. Will do core workout today--after a hairy nap. A very dehydrated 129.8, but glad to be under 130 under any condition. Perhaps next week I will be legitimately sub 130. |

| No running. Hiked just over 16k on Lantau Island, from Mui Wo up and back to Mui Wo with some friends. It was great weather--rained part of the time. We jumped in a pond below a waterfall and a tiny fish nipped at my feet. |
