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 the long Payson loop, with 20x25 sec strides, 1 min rest. Coach says start these at 5k pace then increase speed toward 1 mile pace as you go along. This is the first time I tried to conscientiously obey that instruction. I held back to 5k pace for the first half and the last 7 made them more like mile pace, and so it felt nice to finish the strides feeling strong. 5:23 ave pace for fast segments. Core workout in evening. Also lots of weeding and cleaning. Active day. It was my son's last track meet of the track season. There's another meet next week, but we can't go to it. He has been wearing my spikes from high school--they fit him! It's been fun to see him compete. He's not not naturally strong in sprinting or in distance, but he's improved, and he's quite good at throwing their nerf-like javelin.

Met MacK and Ali in Salem. Ran 6 miles, dropped of MacK, ran two more with Ali, then finished off on my own. 9.75 in 75 min (7:42 pace). Per Ali's suggestion, I walked .5 to get above 10 miles for today. Going to the PT today. Nothing seriously wrong. My upper left calf got tight after Saturday's race. It's feeling better but still a little sore. I want my upper right hamstring worked on. My right foot is just barely tender (has been getting better over the last two weeks). They might want to torture me by working on my ITB. We'll see. 3.5 miles walking in evening.

| Woke up early! 4:25. And ran with my new 405 Garmin, which just came in the mail yesterday. It is sweet. I like the bezel, though I am still learning how to navigate through everything. Ran .75 on my own, then stretched and met with MacK and Holly. Ran 6.44 total. MacK and I then went to the Payson pool, where we met up with Josse and pool ran. 1:03 in the pool. I won't count cross training miles in my log. 18 miles easy tomorrow. So glad I get to sleep in tomorrow. |

Ran two miles, stretched then ran 10 with Holly and MacK, picking up Aubrey on the way, then 6 less than fun miles at the end. I started at 6:30 and finished around 9:10, so it was pretty hot the 6 miles on my own. Legs felt good, but fatigued when I got home, kind of long run achy, so did 14 minutes in an ice bath, though I only got the temp down to 53F--should have bought some ice on the way home. 18.01 miles @ 7:45 ave pace.
