Long-Term Running Goals:

I love training with others both on road and trail. I also find benefits of running solo when I need to focus and regroup.

Fun fact: Although I prefer to run outside, I don't mind the treadmill for pace accountability and for the blind assumption that I can run really fast. I have a lot of secret treadmill PR's at 0% incline:)

I am a Mormon

 

I am married to a supportive and driven husband. Together we enjoy geocaching, hiking, camping, reading and playing games with our three rambunctious children.

Aside from running, I am a homemaker and a Mental Health Therapist. Running has given me the ability to better concert my energies between my family, faith and friends.

The longest 4 miles 8:53ap. Just felt that way as I was blowing in the wind to and fro. I'm getting sluggish. I guess that means I'm tapering right. Right? And I have a gut full of whole grains.

It's my birthday and a scheduled day off. I woke up to a sticky note from my husband giving me my first clue for a scavenger hunt filled with prizes throughout the day. He timed them all well so it kept me busy. The most clever was a note saying that the hunt was done until 11:09 and to enjoy the gifts till then. At exactly 11:09, a loud song started playing somewhere in the house. Behind a picture frame, he had a battery powered alarm with a present and note by it, saying that the hunt was back on. Loved it! Anyway ended with me getting a camera that I wanted so I can post selfies all day long.

Aside from the hunt, I deep cleaned the house while it snowed all day long. Apparently this storm brought in more snow than January, February and March combined. Believe it.

Easy 4 miles at gym. I have a right sided niggle that has played with my head for the past two days. It was aching when I went to sleep and woke up this morning. I think as soon as I run, it will go away. I'm going to call it a taper niggle. Those are psycophysical and can be thought away.
