I have loved to run since I was a little girl when I won my first race against a neighbor boy in his backyard. I have run recreationally ever since, but never really setting any goals other than distance or to participate in a race for the fun of it. So this is all new territory for me and I'm feeling very out of my league. At the suggestion of a friend, here I am... trying to get to the next step in my running.
Besides being a runner, I own an IT Staffing company, am a yoga instructor and snowboarder. I have a wonderful husband and beautiful baby girl. |

| 20 mi 13 - City Creek 7 - city Forgot to charge my GPS, but my time sucked. After coming out of City Creek I was exhausted and didn't want to take another step. The last 7mi were grueling. |

| 6 mi Trail: Millcreek - Church Fork 0:58:28 I got up there way too late in the morning; it was Satan's griddle out there! I felt overheated and sluggish. |

| 15 miles 2:22:56 Felt ok up to mile 10, then it was like I just wanted to lay down on the nearest patch of grass and sleep. The last 5 miles dragged :-(. I think my friend is probably right... perhaps low iron is to blame? I did some research and I guess it is very common, especially among female runners and vegetarians (I'm female and pescitarian - a.k.a. "fish-atarian") to experience anemia and/or iron depletion (low ferritin). I guess low ferritin often goes undetected when getting a simple iron test because doctors are usually looking for hemoglobin and hematocrit levels. The problem is both of these levels can be normal while the ferritin is depleted and which can make a huge impact on running performance. I think I'll head in for a serum ferritin test tomorrow and in the meantime, I picked up an iron supplement today. Anyone with suggestions or experience on this... please share. |

| PM: 8mi slow and easy at Liberty Park. I feel really good about this considering I was plagued with stomach flu Monday night and most of Tuesday. My only complaint... that park is swimming in vampirous mosquitos!!! 1:17:21 |
