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

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 don't even want to write it....it's so deja vu-ish!  Six miles in the RAIN!  But as I was avoiding all the worms all over the road yet again I was thankful that I wasn't out running when THEY were falling!  That would not be a fun run.  So far I've always been out just after the worms fall, never during a bad worm storm.

I always feel bad for the worms after the rain. I stop and pick up as many as I can and put them in the grass so they don't get roasted when the sun comes out. On the other hand, I never feel much pity for the skunks and coons that litter Legacy highway. I guess I'm fond of animals lower on the evolutionary scale.

I actually thought of picking one or two up and tossing them onto the grass but I didn't do it. I wouldn't have got much running done if I would have tried to save the worms! It made me think of my son who was in Japan and was throwing the starfish back into the ocean, (like the famous story), and a guy came up to him yelling that he was ruining the eco system by tossing them back. : }

OK...there is no way I could pick up the worms....sorry I just can't handle things like that. Nice 6 mile run....Hope you are getting ready for your cruise!!
