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.

3 miles!! yay! It was good to get back to a normal run today. About half way through I thought I might call it quits because I was up all night Saturday night throwing up. I decided however to keep going and it turned out great. I had one of those good feelings towards the end that I could keep going forever. Not sure what was up on Saturday but I cleaned myself out pretty good. It was bad enough that I called someone to sub for me playing the organ on Sunday (something I've never had to do in all 2 1/2 years of the calling...except for after I had the baby for the first 2 months but that doesn't count)

We'll see how today goes but so far so good. :)

I opted not to go with Luz today just in case I wasn't able to keep up. I was worried I hadn't fully recoverd from Sunday's throwing up adventures. I actually haven't run today at all...there was a stray big mean dog outside of my neighbors house chasing me every time I walked outside. I chased it away with a big stick but didn't feel like messing with it around the corner for nine times around the block. Anyway, I feel good this morning so I'm pretty sure I'll be able to squeeze in 3 miles sometime today.

Did everyone have a good St. Patricks Day yesterday? My kids were hilarious in the morning...trying to hide their green from each other and then pinch the offending pincher 6 times...or is it ten?  

My leg was hurting a little bit today. I need to baby it again looks like. Very annoying.

felt okay today. I hung upside down and that really seems to be the magic for my leg right now. Thank goodness for our inversion table. 

Yesterday I heard this crazy thing that I'd never heard of before...someone almost dying from a tubal pregnancy. It was a lady from a computer class my children attend. Her mother said her other daughter found her on the bathroom floor passed out when she happened to stop by. Another hour or so and she probably would have bled to death. Scary stuff. I guess we really just have to take this life one day at a time. Sasha bless his cute little geeky heart gave me a really complicated running analogy to help me try and not stress too much about what happens in our home. I won't go into it because I couldn't do it justice. I'm so grateful for him and happy that I married a geek :)

got in my 3 ...I slept in today which feels good but throws me off my schedule. Also it should probably be a law in my house anyway that if I go to Enrichment night then Sasha and the kids clean the entire kitchen for me while I'm gone...especially if I've already slaved over a dinner for them. Unfortunately I have a terrible time bossing people around. Have to find that balance of leadership to them because I also don't want to fall into the martyr/resentment trap either.  off...to the kitchen....

I just couldn't finish today...my leg was hurting pretty bad today and I decided to call it quits part way through...easy to do when you are running around the block and passing your house every 3 minutes. 

We got to go to the temple last night..very peaceful and nice. :)
