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.

Met up with Alana for an early morning run outside. It was good for me to 'chase' her - pushed my pace. I didn't wear a watch, but after hearing her splits, I think I averaged about an 8:45 pace. At this point, that is good for me running my fifth day in a row. Whew - so grateful for no injuries and running healthy, tired, but healthy. I feel yoga 5-7 times a week has really helped strengthen.

Girls & I met up with Rex @ Skyline so we could do speed work on the track. I warmed up with a mile. Then did 6 - 800's @ a 7:38 pace ---- with 400 recovery inbetween, finishing up with a few laps to cool down - I pushed myself today & it felt amazing!!!!!!!!
