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.

Tom and I parked one car at Peteetneet then drove the other one up 3 miles.  We started the run there and went up 3 more then down the whole six.  Then the drive back up to pick up the second car and back home.  It was very nice up Payson Canyon except for the low flying planes zooming up to scout camp!  (cars with drivers who drive way too fast!)  I will also be happy when the deer on the side of the road has finished it's decomposition!  STINKY!

We passed Peteetneet Creek and decided that if that was a name on Wheel of Fortune you would do well to by an "E", no other vowels are going to help you out on that one.

Happy to say the knees are continuing to hold out fine at the moment.  I'm really trying to focus on some good form up hill and down hill.  And also quicker turnover and counting my steps in 3/4 instead of 4/4.  I really want to run this SGM with no or very minimal knee pain even if that means taking it slower than I have in the past. 

All in all a great morning run!

Sounds like a good run. Glad the knees feel good. Isn't if funny the things we think about on a run....you had me laughing about the Wheel of Fortune comment.
