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.

Did my 4.3 route mostly with Tom.  He is still being a bit careful in getting his miles up.  I must say he has been a very diligent patient and done everything his PT has told him to do.  I think next week he will be at my mileage. 

These June mornings have sure been beautiful!  As we round the corner into the river bottoms we are greeted each day with the cutest little colt!  There are also a couple larger horses there.  Then we get to see fluffy little white bunny and sometimes his buddy grey bunny will also be out sunning.  Today we were also greeted by some of the chickens out for a stroll.  Down the road a bit we usually see 2 horses with their little goat buddy, but not today...must be somewhere else where the grasses are greener or something.  And white doggy buddy who used to come out and bark at us now just watches us pass by.  I think he's getting too old for his old antics!  I hope I never get to old to get up and go.  It's good to start a new week!  Have a great day!

Tom and I decided to do our Leland 8 mile loop today.  It was nice to have a change of scenery, but it gives us the wind at our face around miles 5 - 7.  But it was a nice morning, the clouds were in just the right places at the right times.

We'll see what happens when you go to the midnight showing of Eclipse with your great friend visiting from Georgia, (I have never even seen any of the Twilight movies but wanted to go just to have a fun girl's night), get home at 3:20 a.m. then get up at 6:00 to go on my 6 mile run with my hubby. 

I felt really good for the run.  The wind tried to break us as we went up our hill in mile 4 but it just helped kick me into a faster gear at the top for my last two miles.  Most of the run was about a 9:20 average.  Mile 5 was 8:42 then my last mile by myself was 7:56.  I walked back and walked home with Tom for about a half a mile.  This has been good for me to get a little walking in after my run.  I've never been very good at doing  a good cool down.

Crash and burn to come....

Wow!  I can't believe it is already July 2nd!  Where does time go?  Sometimes it's kind of scary!  Anyway, I was suppose to do 6 yesterday and 3 today but my body and mind needed to take yesterday off so I did 6 today instead.  I only lost 3 miles for the week by taking yesterday off. 

Tom and I ran 3 together then I added 3 more on my own.  He will soon be caught up to my weekly mileage and then he will stick with me through all my runs for the most part.

Tom and I had a great morning run today before heading to my hometown of Manti for the 4th of July celebrations.  Went out to Ozbourne's past Junk Mail up Zepher around the corner to Harry's (went up about a half a mile) back down Harry's down around Pretty Little Road and back through Junk Mail, Ozbournes and up Heartbreak hill. 

We met up a bit with Chad and Hal.  Chad told us of finding a drunk on a bike sprawled out on the road on his way to meet up with people at 5:30 a.m.  He had to wait for cops to come which put him about a half hour behind on his day.  I'm glad it wasn't me that ran into that scene!  You never know what you will see out on your early morning run!
