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.

Ran the hills with Alana today - not sure if we are crazy, but this type of training is making us stronger! Last two miles was struggling with right knee/possibly i-t band? not sure, but I slowed my pace to a 9:50 for the last two miles - overall average pace today was a 9:25 - feel pretty good about that. I will stretch, roll and epsome salt bath tonight - take tomorrow off. Ready for a full week of being back to work!

Looped the river - wore my tights and gloves this morning 37 degrees with a breeze! Man, legs are tired from long work days. Looking forward to a three day weekend.
