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 did my leg weight exercises along with my stomach exercises and 70 men's pushups.  Then I cleaned the house and went to the store.  After dinner Leslie and I swam.  I did 20 laps front crawl.

Met the BBK's at Bingham.  We ran around the subdivision and then down 2200 to 9800 S and then west to 2700 and then south to 104th.  When we got to 104th I was so tired I told everyone goodbye and headed down 104th back to Bingham.  After breakfast and a short rest I rode the stationary bike for 30 minutes and called it a day.

I did my arm weight exercises.  Leslie and I were going to swim but since it was cold and snowy we changed our minds and will swim Friday.

Met the BBK's for early miles.  It was very snowy so Leslie, Duke and I went very slow.  We ran down 40th west towards the temple.  Cheris, Mike, Lisa and a couple others kept going.  Michelle, Eric, Leslie and I turned around before the hill and headed back.  When we got back the others were there.  Leslie and I needed to be places so we both left.  We never did see Mike and his group coming back so the others took off without them.

Leslie and I swam at Marv's this afternoon.  I did 20 laps front crawl, took a 1 minute break and did 10 more laps front crawl.  I'm not as tired as I used to be when I swam so I must be getting a little better.  I was on lap 4 when Leslie started and she still finished ahead of me.

Leslie, Chrissy and I jogged three miles in the snow this morning.  When we were ready to leave it was a blizzard but half way through the snow stopped.  We went down redwood to 104th and back.  Leslie held Duke and I went slow with Chrissy.  I went even slower than usual because I didn't want to fall down.  After breakfast I used the stationary bike for 30 minutes.
