Maintain good racing weight but keep running fun! And helping others to believe in themselves.
Keep improving each year for as long as I can.
Win each age category for St. George marathon until I am really old.
Personal:
I am married to Nathan Long and have two cute boys. I enjoy being a mom but running keeps me sane.=) Running is my passion and always will be. I was asked by a friend what I was training for and I said to be skinny. She looked at me (as we just finished 3 hard one mile repeats after I just got done having two crowns put in) and said, "No one trains that hard to be skinny." I said, "I do." To me working out is fun! I love pushing my body to new limits. I think if I had to do just mileage I would go crazy!
Loved running in the warm sun of Southern California. Cramped last 1.5 I think from not enough water water fluids after having the fever for 2days and the long run. Decided not to double and let body recover. Best recovery? The beach!
