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.

This morning the legs were still feeling the 14 mile downhill Saturday run. It was nice to get them moving but a 10 minute pace felt more like a 9:00. Oh well, I guess it was a recovery run and didn't need much fanfare.

Tom and I are loving the morning runs right now. Pretty much perfect temps here in our little corner of the world. Still get the wind most mornings but just very enjoyable days. I wish this kind of day/morning would last much longer than it does.

We did 5 striders along the way to help perk the legs up. The legs still have a few memories of the Payson Canyon downhill we did on Saturday. But all in all this morning's run felt quite nice.

Now I'm off to spend a nice day with my dear friend Lesa! Just what the doctor ordered. : ) No laundry, no grocery shopping, no cleaning, just fun and relaxation today.

Time for our "City Tour Ten" again. Up and down the streets of our good ole windy city. This gives us a mini long run/hill workout in the middle of the week.

Yesterday I got to go with my dear friend out for massages and lunch to celebrate our b-days. One word...."heavenly"! My cute little massage thearapist at the Yardley Inn and Spa in Manti is my favorite! She works the legs exactly how I need them at this point in marathon training.

Tom and I shook things up a bit today and ran down west, mostly on some of the city trails. It was a nice morning. Not many others out at first but finally started seeing a few people enjoying the early morning. Rest day tomorrow then 20 on Saturday.

Best long run of the year! Loved it! Woo Hoo! I'm feelin' it! Yippee Yahoo! Good Golly Miss Molly! And any other type of woo hoo you can think of! I feel good, I feel great, I feel wonderful!

Beautiful run down Provo Canyon to Utah Lake with my really cute running partner! I just really can't think of anything negative about the run at the moment. We thought the detour on the Provo Trail was going to mess us up but it actually took us to exactly 20 at the finish.

Now....if only I can have the same kind of experience in 4 weeks with adding another 6.2 miles on!

Did I mention this was a great run?!
