Running Accomplishments:

I started running in the fall of 2007.  I truly believe I was inspired to start running and I have seen some very big blessings come my way because of following that inspiration.

Ran Boston Marathon 2013 & 2014.  My favorite PRs:  2011 at the SG 1/2 and 5K where I ran the 5K in 22:22.    2013 Nebo 1/2 (downhill) 1:36:15

Short-Term Running Goals:

 

Long-Term Running Goals:

Running throughout life with Tom. Staying healthy and happy.

 Learn from others, learn from myself, work hard, do my best, enjoy!

On running and on life.....

On occasion we need to make a second effort - and a third effort, and a fourth effort, and as many degrees of effort as may be required to accomplish what we strive to achieve.

A lovely six miles this morning.  A little windy as I started which made it a bit cold, but ended up great!  Must have been the right time of the morning to avoid the grasshoppers!  Didn't see a one!  Yippee!

Today I found the silver lining.....or at least the silver anniversary!  EEeeeek!  How could it already be 25 years!?  Love you Tom!

Today is my sweet mother-in-law's birthday.  Too bad she has been gone for 18 years.  We sure do miss her.

I ran 3 miles this evening down to the running club Midnight Run/Pizza party.  While there I got the other 3 in with the gang.  Always nice to get the families together.

I wanted to make sure I didn't end up with speedy people today because I didn't want to push the pace at all.  Well, when Tom and I met up at the church, who do we find?  Speedy Chad, Speedy Ken, Speedy Pat!  So I told them I would go the other way to the Storehouse and meet them there to see if any slower people showed up.  Down there  we got Speedy Hal and Speedy Kevin to join in!  Luckily not quite as speedy Stephen was there too and Tom decided it wasn't smart to push things with the racers this morning so I was able to run with them for a bit.  However, Tom and Hal pushed a bit more than I wanted and Stephen went off to talk to Mother Nature, so I ended up alone again. 

At Osborne's Tom finally realized he really didn't want to push the pace with the racers and stuck with me until a little less than a mile when he wanted to push again just to get home!  So my run today was with Tom and without Tom. 

T minus one week and counting!
