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.

I tried a "two a day" today in preparation for Wasatch Back in a few weeks.  I went out this morning around 6 o'clock and did five miles.  Then I just got back from 6 more.  The sun wasn't shining too much but it felt quite warm and muggy.  It's good for me to get out in a little more warmth.  (I'm saying warmth because I know that Bonnie has been running in 100 degrees, so I dare not say hot.  Even though to us who have not yet had spring think it feels that way.)   This morning's average pace was 8:58 and this last one was 8:50.  I was going to keep this second one slower than 9s but I guess I was impatient. 

Good news!  Tom is so on the mend!  He will soon start getting back into very gentle running.  I can't wait to run with him again!  He will be taking it easy through this running season so it will be a fun time to run together, (since his easy is my regular stuff).

Now, you take it easy on Tom during your walk tonight, his whole comeback depends on you not letting him get too wild and crazy!

Heat is all relative, you get used to what you have - so it is fine to say heat when you have had to live with sleet (or cold rain anyway) in May!!
