I ran the Top of Utah Marathon in 4:43 after having my third child the year before. 5 K in 24:19, 10 K in 53 minutes pregnant. Survived personal training from my lovable but slightly overbearing husband Sasha for more than 8 years!!
Short-Term Running Goals:
Break 23:45 in the 5k.
Long-Term Running Goals:
Stay thin and full of energy.
Not be an embarassment to my family full of world class athletes.
Personal:
Madly in love with Sasha. We have been married since 1996 and have been blessed with seven of the most adorable and talented children : Benjamin, Jennifer, Julia, and Joseph, Jacob, William and Stephen.
All of our children have run in at least one race, including Jacob and William who did it inside the womb. I enjoy various non-running activities such as: baking, sewing, playing organ, piano and flute, painting, and playing with our vivacious children.
49 minutes Felt good to run with Amanda after she was out for her wisdom teeth. Poor thing had to go in twice and it's been harder recovering this time.
Thanks for the kind words, Sarah. Hope all is well. Had to laugh at the Ramen noodle soup reference, because when I was in undergrad that's all anyone ever ate it seems like. I mean at 10 cents a package they probably can't be very good for you haha
I grew up on it....we called it worms and reveled in eating the slimy stuff..worms I'm sure would be better for you but slightly less tasty.
When I was in college there was this grocery store that had free boxes of this boxed scalloped potato stuff...there were hundreds of boxes there for months and I'm sure many a BYU student that year lived off of those.
I lived on Lynn Wilson burritos. How's that for healthy?
Sarah, I wish I could help you guys out with the kids tomorrow. We won't be able to make it up there this time. It would have been so perfect at the 10K. Hope you find someone to help you out. And good luck on the race! Looking forward to the race report!
I also ate a lot of Rice a'Roni...thanks for trying. It will be okay if I don't run. It's a long race and I'm not too upset about not running 9 miles in the cold tomorrow...:)
