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 at 7:30 this morning - cramps most of the run, could only hold a 9:12 pace. there were a few miles in there that were enjoyable, but for the most part - what a tough run. Glad to be done, dislike running when feeling so crappy - yet felt I needed to get that longer run in. Good news, leg/knee feel fine - stretch & ice still...keep keeping on!

hot already, going to be a hot one all week!

Ran from Granny O's again - not a flat route, that's for sure! Emma encouraged me to run this morning...I didn't feel like it. She explained that I would feel much better after my run - just get out and go for it! So happy I did - she is so smart, and such an encouragement! 8:30 pace
