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.

Just a few of the things I can be grateful for on today's run...

  • There was a porta potty in a very needed place!  : )
  • Although it was a porta potty for construction workers it had just been cleaned!  : )
  • The skunk was already dead when we passed it.  Stinky, but not on us!  : )
  • The weather was nice and cool for July and we were fine even though the water stop we had planned didn't work out.  : )
  • A body healthy enough to get out and run!  : )
  • A cute running buddy/hubby to get out and run with!  : )   : )   : )   : )

Hey, you are back!! Maybe you have been back on the blog for a bit and I am just noticing. BUT YEAH!!!

I love this post, so much to be thankful for indeed! I was running with a friend and stopped to use a construction porta potty and she was totally grossed out by it. I told her that construction porta potties are heaven compared to race porta potties! I have never been in a construction porta potty that even appeared used!!! Those things are like little gifts from heaven! Demented, I know.

And, on to the rest....the nice weather, the healthy bodies, and the great husbands to run with! DITTO to all of it.

Have a great week!

Thanks to both of you! It's always fun to know someone cares! Yes, I've been back since the beginning of the year but I haven't been as vocal as I was before. I needed to make sure I don't spend TOO much time blogging! : )

It can get time consuming, I had to set some serious limits on myself.
