Running Accomplishments:

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.

Felt good when I woke up but a little bit winded on my run...guess I shouldn't talk so much...Sasha says he'd be tired if he talked as much as we do when Amanda and I run together. I have plans to ignore my kids as much as possible and finish the quilt top...

My sister saw it and said it was ugly...I told her it was supposed to be ugly..it's art. (does that make sense?)

makes perfect sense to me:) Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

That's it, you'll have to post a pic of your quilt(s). I'm sure they're beautiful. Nothing like a sister's honesty though, huh? (I know, I have a couple...)

You've got to know my sister too...she's as honest as old Abe and as tactful as a terrorist...gotta love her though. :)

I'm going to finish the top today if it kills me and if I have any juice left I'll post a picture today...

Cant wait to see your quilts! I am so impressed, wish I was crafty like that. (and consistent in running like you too) I have a couple tactful terrorists in my life too, funny how I value their opinion more than those that lie to me...

Great run!

I'm actually not super crafty..like I am so the last one to finish my painted snowmen or whatever at the super Saturday...I am however an arteest who loves to try new and creative things...mabye that's why it takes me so long at super saturdays.

The quilt is super ugly but it is way way cool...with lots of different kinds of fabric and a whole lot of sentimental fabric and love put into it...I think I'm gonna work on it now. :)

I know what you mean about valuing the opinions of the opinionated ones in our lives....I think when they compliment it means a lot more too. :)

So I was going to post some pics of my quilt but can't quite figure it out. I put the pics on shutterfly but can't get them on my blog page. Any help?

I would love to see your artistic and beautiful quilts...let me see if Sasha can offer some tech support...he has to hold my hand whenever I post pics..
