Short-Term Running Goals:

Recovering from micro-fracture surgery on my right knee.  I tore the cartilage off of my knee while doing a speed-training run one month before Boston.  Doc gave me a cortisone shot so that I was able to finish Boston.  After the surgery, I was told to never run again. :(

Long-Term Running Goals:

QUALIFIED FOR BOSTON! April 16, 2011 

Ran Boston on April 14, 2012! 

Personal:

 

Married, 40 year old, mother of four. 

 

"In truth, runners don't race other runners.  They race against themselves: to conquer their wills, to transcend their weaknesses, to beat back their nightmares.  And while a runner can't actually beat himself, he can beat his time. Even years into running, he can get better." Running for His Life by Michael Hall

Ran around Panguitch and down my favorite River Lane.  

It was the 24th parade on Saturday and I sat on our little float with the kids (just to make sure my 4 and 7 year old didn't end up falling off) throwing candy to all the kids on the street.  We ended up at my husband's family ranch for the rest of the day having mutton, beans and potatoes. Rick has a family reunion there every year and we never miss it. 

 

I'm with our friends that we went to Powell with.  Bruce dropped us off at the start and went to the finish to run the 5K and  Terri and I ran the half.

 

Had to post my Bryce Canyon time.... I'm 6th place. :)
