Long-Term Running Goals:

I love training with others both on road and trail. I also find benefits of running solo when I need to focus and regroup.

Fun fact: Although I prefer to run outside, I don't mind the treadmill for pace accountability and for the blind assumption that I can run really fast. I have a lot of secret treadmill PR's at 0% incline:)

I am a Mormon

 

I am married to a supportive and driven husband. Together we enjoy geocaching, hiking, camping, reading and playing games with our three rambunctious children.

Aside from running, I am a homemaker and a Mental Health Therapist. Running has given me the ability to better concert my energies between my family, faith and friends.

3.5 hours of sleep. Boo.

6:00 AM-Tempo Tuesday. Easy 5 miles with last 4 progressive at 7:13, 6:44, 6:40, 6:19. Legs and effort felt good, except for the last 75 meters when Kam challenged me to give it the "Bebe kick" (yes, referring to you, Angie Bebe.) He ran a faster kick than I was able to throw down. On an other note, Andy is an animal- he never breathes. It's freaky.

Haha this made my day! I have to throw in those kicks every once in awhile to remind myself that I once was a sprinter and why am I out doing these crazy distance races. I thought of you guys this morning and wondered if you were tempoing cuz I may of joined today. Maybe nxt week? If you do it again.

Sorry Andy, I didn't mean to call you an animal, you're just freaky;)
