| Location: South Jordan,Ut,USA Member Since: Jan 11, 2009 Gender: Female Goal Type: 5 K Finish Running Accomplishments: I've been running for the past 25 years. I ran my first marathon at age 50 and have run 3 since then. I run 5K's, 10K's and half-marathons. I ran the Ogden Marathon in 2006 and finished in 4:35. I won Thrid Place in my age group.
Three of my daughters and I ran the Ogden Half Marathon. They did great and I was glad to just finish. I ran the Riverton 1/2 marathon the end of March and pulled my hamstring and then got bursitis so I wasn't able to train as much as I wanted to.
I have slowed down a lot the past 10 years so my goal now is to keep running slow and steady until I die. I also ride bikes and am as fast as my daughters.
We have now switched from Marathons to 1/2 marathons and Triathlons. Last year Leslie and I did the Desert Sharks Triathlon and Daybreak. I won first in my age group in both because there are not many people in my age group.
2010 Riverton Half Marathon 3rd in age group
Daybreak Triahtlon 2010 1st in age group
South Jordan Half Marathon 2010 1st in my age group
Riverton 10K 2010 1st in my age group
Vikingman Triathlon September 10 2010 Won 1st in my age because I was the only one in my age group
March 2011 Riverton 1/2 Marathon 1st in my age group and there were actually 6 people in my age group.
Short-Term Running Goals: My daughters and I are starting to train for Triathlons, but would still like to run 2 half-marathons and 5K's and 10K's

| | I met the group at Riverton High School. We ran through the subdivision to 3200 and then north. The group kept going past 118th but I turned west and ran until my watch said 20 minutes and then turned around and headed back. I had to be to work at 7am. After work and a short nap I did my leg weight/stomach exercises along with pushups.

| | Duke and I did the RUNGR8 3 mile run. Christine was there with Buddy her dog so we made sure she started out before us. Duke and Buddy would have been all over each other. I got a new phone and it had a run tracker on it. It was nice to see how far I was running and how fast. The run ended up being 3.2 miles and I did it in 12 minute miles. IT was a good run.

| | I've seen goats, skunks, deer, dogs and foxes on my run but today I saw something I have never seen. Duke and I ran down 114th to 1300 west and then south to the church. On the way back we were almost to 114th and I saw an animal cross the road in front of us. I tried to slow Duke down because I thought it was a skunk. As we got closer I thought maybe it was a porcupine but then I saw it's tail and it was a beaver. Duke got excited for a minute but the beaver ran into the neighbors bushes. Anyway it was a good run.

| | I ran 3.3 miles with Duke and then got ready for my family Christmas Party. Most of our kids, grand kids and son-in-laws came for our Breakfast Christmas Party. Most were in town for my grand daughters wedding. It was a very nice wedding. The party was a lot of fun.

| | Duke and I met the group at Bingham High. It was very rainy but there were still 6 other people there. We ran north on 2200 to Miner Drive and then around the subdivision and back out to 2200. Then we ran north to oak drive and then west to 2700. Then we went south to 104th. I turned and went home and the group kept going. I ran east to Bingham and then home. I was very soaked but it was a good run.

| | We had out annual BBK Christmas Eve run and breakfast. Duke had a sore leg so I picked up my daughter Christine and we went to the run. There were about 15 people at the run. We started at Cheris's house and ran out to 3600 south until the road turned east. Then we ran to 3200 west and turned south again. The group was way ahead but my daughter kept comming back and then going ahead. When my watch hit 30 minutes I turned around and headed back. Most of the group passed me on the way back. The breakfast was good and we had a fun time.

| | I dressed up warm and Duke and I ran from our house out to redwood and then south to 123rd and back. The sidewalks were not too slippery but I ran in the bike lane when the sidewalks were slippery. It was a good run.

| | Since it was very cold I went to the Rec Center to run. I ran 3 miles. It was warm but I sure like running outside better.

This year our son Ben is the only one not married. Our daughter Leslie that is expecting triplets was so tired of just laying around that she and her husband came with us. We really had fun. Leslie is getting so big that it is very hard for her to move. The doctor thinks she can make it to the first week in February.
