Running Accomplishments:

-I'm an avid runner and crossfitter turned obstacle racer.  This year has brought on new and unexpected opportunities racing in Spartan races.  I'm in love with this new challenging part of my life.

Here is what I've come away with so far

1st - Socal Super Spartan 2013

1st - Texas Sprint Spartan2013

2nd- Las Vegas Super Spartan 2013

3rd - Arizona Sprint Spartan 2013

3rd - Atlas Obstacle Race 2013

5th - Spartan World Championships 2013

 

Future Races

October?? maybe Sacramento Beast Spartan

December - Texas Beast

 

 

Short-Term Running Goals:

I am working to become the best obstacle  racer I can be.  If that goes hand in hand with a National Championship title, than I will have met 2 of my goals/dreams.

 

Long-Term Running Goals:

Another sub 3 hour marathon

Sub 1:20 half marathon

I want to complete an ironman and some ultra races.

I Hope to be running until I'm 100.

 

Personal:

I have 2 boys (7 and 4) and a little girl (14 months) that keep me on my toes and make life worth living..  I've been married to my better half (Jim clark) for 10 years.  I teach fitness classes and am a personal trainer - my 2nd love is Zumba!  I love what i do!

I hold Obstacle Training Groups at my house on saturdays -I feel so blessed to be able to help others.

I wrote out a tentitive schedule for training and hope that my body holds up so I can stick to it.  I'm planning on adding miles on every week and then hoping to compete in Georgia Spartan March 9.  My eye is definitely on the prize at the  Las Vegas Spartan.  I'm hoping to get my hill running/ trail running stronger, and be able to nail all the obstacles by gaining upper body strength.

Jim stayed home today so I didnt get to go to strength class - but did go to run outside:)  I ran intervals on my street - 2x400, 2x600, 2x800, 2x600, 2x400 with same distance rest inbetween..  I didn't time each one but saw that I averaged a 5:30-5:40 on each.  I was happy to be able to maintain that time even when the streets were at an incline.
