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.

Sooo long running stroller:(  As we were driving with it in the back of the truck, the wind actually managed to lift it up and out onto the road!  At 60 mph, it got a bit demolished.  Ugh that stroller made life a lot easier though I was going to have to buy a 2 seater soon anyhow.

I ran after class today and everything hurt!  I forgot my belly brace, thus the back and hip pain.  it was kind of miserable.  I ran in hurricane up to the lava mtn, and then back.  I haven't been doing hills, so I had a very challenging run.

I'm switching my class to a straight strength class to cater to me - I can't do abs anymore so I have a hard time showing them what to do.  I'm excited for the change!

As I was hugely sore from this week, I only taught my zumba class at night.  I sooo needed it as I had made a pan of lemon bars and had demolished at least half of them myself!  Oh they are sooooo my weakness.  I paid for it (or i should say my stomach paid for it) at class that night.

I really wanted a workout without having to twist and turn in my core, so I caught a spin class in the a.m.  I was so glad for the change!  I forget how awkward it is when you have a big belly in the way though.  It's a bit harder to lean over, and my legs are always hitting my belly.  I made it through 50 min of the class, and then finished my day in the pool swimming 800 m.  Oh how my body appreciates the relaxing water after all I put it through. 

The best part of today is that I didn't have to cook at all hehe.  I got to go out for lunch and dinner (all on jim's work).  That is sad that this is such a highlight in my life.  I can't believe that food is still not tasting good to me!

I'm writing this ahead of time so I'll commit myself to the 7 miles i want to run!  I may do more but we will see:) 

I woke up today to chaos in the house.  Well first off I should say that my husband was so sweet and let me sleep in til 11 am - I so needed it today.  But after that things kind of went downhill.  I woke to find that my 2 year old had gotten into the fish tank and taken out all the plants and decorations.  And then I noticed that there was nothing swimming in the water anymore expect a nice handful of fish food that he had put in there ("Isaac, where are the fish").  He points to a bowl that he had dumped dry nestle quick mis into.  "They are in there, swimming mom".  um yeah, I was a bit angry.  I'm sure I'll laugh about this someday.  until then r.i.p. my poor fish who died a violent death today.

Isaac had also eaten my entire packet of new gum, dumped all the dog food into the water bowl, as well as pooed his pants (he's been potty trained for a year).  It's been one of those days!  That's why I'm going to force myself to go run right now!  I need it.

I do love that Jim is planning on different races every month, and is going to do the sand hollow marathon in march!  He even let me make a workout schedule up for him which made me way happy.  It will be exciting to be able to cheer for him even though I won't be able to do it myself. 

After seeing his daddy's schedule, my 5 year old Evan wanted one too.  He says he wants to train for the 5k during the St. george half - I'm so excited that he wants to run and workout, and that what I'm doing is rubbing off on him without me pushing him.  I hope he sticks with it.
