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 snow falling outside made it hard to make the right decision today.  Tom called me from work and gave me a little motivation.  I like running in snow better than wind so I thought I'd better get out, since the wind will proabably kick in later.

I was trying to do the middle 5 miles at 8:15-8:45 pace.  The first two were up hill and I didn't hit it, but the last three were 8:11-8:15s.   

I came upon a dead skunk in my path.  Gave me a little start there!  He looked like he was just rolled up nicely for a little nap in the middle of the road.  Unfortunately for him but fortunately for me, I beleive it is an eternal sleep that he is in.

Kim, love your picture, nice snow running. Some days that are not the best weather runnings days turn out to be great running days. Hey, question, it seems your in good shape to give that half a real go, set a good PR, keep up the good work.
