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.

Alana was gracious enough to watch and feed the girls while I went out this afternoon (hot) and ran. Was dragging the first 4 miles, gelled and then did great until mile 9, when I went to gel again, it must have dropped out :( I slugged my last 4 miles back to her house, where she made me a shake and we visited all afternoon - knee, shins, legs felt good! Tired from yesterdays run, but happy summer to us!

on the TM @ 11:00 a.m. Alana always jokes that it is tough to run at an odd time, but this 3 miles was seriously hard. Emma and Ali ran around a corned and crashed into each other at .75, then emma called to me b/c my calendar was going off on my phone at 1.48, (went upstairs to turn off) back onto the TM for last mile and half - SIGH, this single parent thing can be tough on workouts for sure!

after a sleep over at the Well's house, Alana and I went for an 8 mile - seriously, after doing HER yoga class twice this week, I must have been spent. I gave it my all out there for a 9 minute mile pace!! WOW, good training, just keeping going :) beautiful morning!! 

 After 2.5 hours at the pool, took care of front & back lawn (moe), ran Emma to 4H, Ali to my folks, then met up with Elly Mae in the hills for hills/trails. WOW what a work out. We went out at 6:30 and it was 87 degrees last I had checked. I was dripping head to toe and one happy woman - I think I will rest tomorrow. Rex comes back from church camp and I have to go take care of Granny Bell's lawn/yard work for her in the morning. WHEW - summer break is good.
