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.

OK....I'm not the kind of girl to sit around and watch everyone else have all the fun!  I have been a "silent lurker", (as Tom put it), of the fast running blog since meeting many of you fine people in St. George last week!  I am planning on running the St. George 1/2 in January.  Moab actually sounds like a great idea also! 

My training right now is with a friend who has never ran until she started with me in August.  We are taking it pretty easy and slow.  My first half was in Jan. 2000 with a time of 2 hours 20 minutes. (When I crossed the finish line the guy who gave me my time ticket told me, "All you need to do is cut 4 minutes off of each mile and you can be a contender!")  Wasn't he a funny guy?!   My second half was in Jan. 2006 with a time of 2 hours and 10 minutes.  I think this one will be much slower with my training partner, but at least I am running again.  Maybe I can try to pick up the pace for Moab. 

It really was fun to meet many of you in St. George!  I hadn't really paid much attention to the blogging that Tom was in to until I saw how nice you all are!   It was so fun to sit at the finish line and see all you awesome runners come in so fast!

Got to run 3 with Tom.  He ran his regular route, then came home and waited for me to wake up and then went with me.  (The kids didn't have school today, so waited until about 9:00 to run).  It was great to run with Tom again, haven't done that in a while.  I'm sure it probably drives him crazy to go so slow with me, but he never complains!
