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 w/Alana, Gama and Shelley. Up Sunny Side 8.5 which gave us some hill and then back down. Back right hamstring really tight. Did ice bath and lots of stretching. Will just need to continue to stretch. I had to stop numerous times to stretch on the run as well. This was a mental tough one today ~ but really good to push through! 8:51 over-all pace.

I'm really liking my "odd" distance times :) makes me grin slightly. Good shake out run this morning - funny - same pace as I ran 17 yesterday - YET a lot easier...nice and easy for my body. Praise God for a healthy body to run with!!

9:11 pace, still have tired legs from Sunday. Felt good to be out running - start temp was 65 degrees and end temp was 74...going to be a hot August I think. Odd distance B/C I ran into Terry who I found out lives a block from me! I had her Boston long sleeve from our last marathon (I did bag check) so I was able to return it to her and not run up Grandview hill...
