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.

I needed a confidence booster this day since my marathon miles on sat were not what i wanted.  I guess i'll see next week if this run was a bad idea.  It helped my mental strength for sure! 

I ran to the top of the highway, and then did 5 tempo miles at 10k pace down to cholla creek.  I slowly jogged home to make it 10 miles.  I was pretty happy with my mile pace, even with some uphills mixed in. - averaged a 6:06 The pace was definitely pushing me, but it was do-able.

Miles were 1 - 5:57, 2- 5:54, 3- 6:10, 4 - 6:22, 5 -5:58

My legs weren't too tired by the end, and am hoping this will mean great things for my marathon next week!

it feels so weird to only run 4 miles, but that's what's on the schedule.  why is it so hard to do less?

Today was supposed to be 4 marathon pace miles, but it really didn't go as planned.   My legs felt heavy after my mile warm -up, and didn't improve as i tried to speed up the pace.  I think i'm tired from tues run...dang it. i hope i didn't overdo it.  First mile was 6:40, 2nd 6:58 (and it felt way toooo hard).  So i decided to cut it short and just do some slow miles in.

  Also found out that my Grandpa passed away today - I'm glad that he is out of pain.  Time to head to Idaho.  The forced rest will do me some good too.

I loved my chance to run in the cool Idaho mountain air today!  It was so beautiful and perfect.  I ran up a canyon, and then back down - legs still not great but ok.  averaged 7:50 overall, but also do a good amount of climbing.  Hopefully I get some high elevation training while i'm up here.
