Personal:

Married with 2 lively boys. I love running and I love getting faster. Just trying to figure out how to balance life between being a mother, wife, part time nurse, and runner. :)

When I was in 6th grade I filled out a Getting to Know You sheet. Under nicknames I wrote, "My brothers call me Boo Legs, I think its because I run fast." (It really came from the movie, Strange Brew) And its been my family nickname ever since.

Even though I ran inside today, I felt soooo much better because I can actually see the sky. (I'm sure a lot of people living in northern Utah feel this way) Lately, I feel like I've got some winter blues going on because of the crappy weather and air. Its been a real bummer not being able to run outside in the fresh air. Treadmill running gets old, there's only so many shows I can catch up on. Its been hard to find motivation. Struggling big time. Long story short, I'm hoping to run outside sometime this week before the crappy air comes back.....

Treadmill miles. Average pace 8:34. I've definitely lost speed this winter. Followed up the miles with push ups, dips, and planks.

Treadmill miles. Slow and easy. Followed by about 15 mins of lower body strength training.

10 slow outside miles. It felt good to run outside again. I haven't done so in about a month. Stinkin weather....

Almost died a couple of times due to some very icy spots and large amounts of snow plowed to the side of the road. There isn't as much room for me to run on the shoulder of the roads and not risk being side swiped by passing cars. Actually had to hop into snow banks a few times to avoid on coming cars.

Despite the car dodging and escaping death a few times, I was so happy to be running outside.
