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

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.

Another happy running day cause I got to run with Maryanne.  Well for the first part anyways.  Before she came over, I did a crossfit workout with Sue - Dirty 30s.  Everything feels hard this week! 

I was especially tired today from the intense workouts, and from the fact that Ivy wasn't sleeping well - the dreaded teething.

So I forced myself to run the Toquerville Falls Road - Never a "fun" run but definitely fulfilling.  2 miles of straight steep uphill, then rolling hills at the top.  I only did 8 but felt really happy with that.

6:00 am came way early today!  It was still somewhat cold outside and I was way thankful that I had some people coming to run with me - or else I would've slept in a bit.  But Taylor and Maryanne met me to do the course that I had set out for my training group.  Taylor is a strong crossfitter, and Maryanne a good runner.  It was fun to have them with me for a change:)  Maryanne did awesome for her first time.  she got the rope, wall, tires and other fun stuff on her first time.  I hope she's sore

I ended up doing the course 2 x which was 13 miles.  The first time through was harder cause it was still chilly and my hands were freezing.  I would get ahead of Taylor on the hills, and then he'd catch me on some of the obstacles. 

I sped up on the last 5 miles and was feeling just a little more tired by the last mile.  That makes me way happy - 13 miles plus obstacles was feeling easy.  2.5 hrs of working out. 

I didn't think I was sore til I laid down later on (and then got back up).  Oh yes - just a bit sore:)
