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 outside in the wind after school! HARD, ran down Grandview, looped Freeman Park then back around and up Grandview....into the wind....whew! Good training! 8:18 ap for first three, then into wind and uphill for an overall ap of 8:29 :) Feeling STRONG
COLD 17 degrees. Started out run with Rex, Lyndsi met up with Shelley @ Bank. Passed Curt & Jeff...good to see others out this morning. Lyds really pushed me. We averaged 8:50 the first half then kicked it in gear to finish with average pace (overall) 8:32
