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.

Started out where I stopped at mile 4...had an average pace of 9:10, and wanted to turn and go home. I did a self check...felt fine, just heavy legs. I took my only gel I had with me and picked up the pace. I ended up feeling so good that I added another 2 miles onto what should have been a 13 mile run :) Oh Happy Day! so overall, ap was 8:48 ~ I feel so dang goooood

What an amazing run with amazing women! Ran with Alisa & Shelley - up Sunnyside 7 mile then back down to Ammon road - headed south til 97th then west for home. Nice rollers, for hill training in the middle. Where I had been ill all week, I wasn't going to go the full 20 (like half in fact) but then felt awesome halfway - pushed myself in a great way! 8:30 average pace (feeling like a rock star right now) crazy to think we celebrated a year ago when we would run 5 miles at this pace (and couldn't talk - we talked the entire first 12/13 miles). So grateful for the running women in my life to encourage and push me to a better, faster runner! Alana was missed this morning!
