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.

The plan today was for 6 miles with the last 4 at 8:30 pace.  I had to adjust that a bit because of time and wind.  I got out a bit late and realized I needed to be at the school to help in my daughter's class at 12:15.  So in order to get back and have time for a shower I had to cut a mile out. 

So I did 2 miles warm up then tried for the 8:30 for the last three.  The up hill and wind on the first two made it so I could only get to a 8:46 and 8:58 pace.   Finally the last mile was level and crosswind instead of up hill and head wind.  I did that mile in 7:49 and felt much better than the others! 

Hurried home, showered, quick bite to eat and off to help at the school.  Came out of the school to some rain....glad I was done with the run!  Now I want chocolate!

I bought me some dark chocolate covered almonds at Sam's club yesterday. I think I'll eat some now.

BTW nice job on the tempo run. Those paces look dandy to me. Since you only did 5 today maybe you can join me for 5 again on Friday?
