Running Accomplishments:

I began running for my first time about 3 years ago. I remember calling everyone I knew the first time a ran 2 miles w/out stopping. I ran Mesa Falls half marathon @ 2:21 in fall 2009. I ran Salt Lake half marathon spring 2010 @ 1:54. Then I ran Missoula, MT full marathon summer 2010 @ 4:25. I was injured (IT Band) for Portland marathon (fall 2010) but went and picked up my packet anyway. Ran Ogden 4:26....

Short-Term Running Goals:

Over the next two years, I would like to improve my strenghth and speed.

Long-Term Running Goals:

I WILL qualify and run Boston before I turn 40. I just turned 36 this year ~ 

Personal:

In May, 2013, I will have been married to my love, Rex, for 16years. And it just keeps getting better and better! Two beautiful daughters. Emma (8) and Ali (5). This is my ninth year teaching and I love that I get paid to do it! Running gives me energy, sanity and is simple joy for me.

Up early & ran in nice cool tmps! Felt good, just tired, so kept at a 9:14 pace for 5miles. Met up with Shelly, gary & alisa to run 11 more miles. What a great visit & run! Think I may go in and have some breathing tests done when we get bac from all our travles...odd that I struggle still and cough up nasty only when I run. Overall pace was 9:07

Such a journey today. Rex & I started at the beach, ran six along lake, I decided to run the route through town, local market, golf course and trail run that lasted three miles. My inside knee on lefft has been a bother & I almost didn 't go out today...so happy I did. I joined rex in the lake for our "cold" bath. Then while the folks & Corena took kids to water park, Jill, Gail, Clark, Rex and I went wine tasting at thee local winerys ... Finished night at beautiful restaurant and family vollyball in back yard. Oh, average pace was an 8:58.
