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. |

| Easy run around to and around Kowloon Tsai Park, trying to get any bit of shade I could. Pretty sunny which made the 27F feel more hot. Lots of walking around Mongkok, Yau Ma Tei and Kowloon City today. Probably 8k of walking. |

I am a bad blogger. I know it, and I am sorry. Today I met Roberto for a hard workout, but only 3 x 1k. Sounds easy right? We warmed up long enough for me to get a bathroom break. 6.15k. Then we were doing the 1k bits along a straight stretch in FoTan, using the 100m markings used by the rowers who are in the water right by the path. Roberto has been doing very well (just did a low 35 for a 10k in this HK heat, winning a race), so he gave me a 10 second head start. Well he passed me before 400m. My first was 3:26 (he 3:04). 1:55 rest. The second one he gave me a 15 sec headstart and passed me midway, I was again 3:26 (he 3:08). 1:48 rest. This workout was not feeling easy in the middle of the third rep and I just wanted to quit but gutted it out for a 3:29 (he wizzed by me before the halfway point again). We cooled down, then I cooled down some more after we parted. 8.5 cool down. 17.5k total

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.

| Met Roberto early and we ran to Chinese U area, which is very hilly. Did 5k warm up then 10 x 10 sec steep hill sprints, with one min rest. I think the idea is that these hill sprints will activate the hamstrings and improve the strength of my legs in general. I don't ask too many questions. I was just along for the ride. It was quite hot and humid. We are going to the beach and trying to teach the kids how to snorkel, so should be a fun day. |
