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.

This morning I woke up to lots of wind and rain, so I left out the door a bit overdressed only to find it wasn't too cold. Ran 10.40 down main and felt pretty good. I'm tired of this run eliciting just over 8 min pace and decided to push the last bit to get under 8, just for a confidence boost. Splits were 8:14,8:29,8:27 8:01, 8:22, 7:55, 7:52, 7:03, 7:50, 7:26, 7:59 (.40)= 7:57 AP. The last hill made me feel like I was crawling so I need to work on that.

Not a momentous run, but I needed to get out of my rut for this morning run I do most often and start challenging my average pace a little.

Funny that you found me on here, I can't ever find anyone anymore. You are running really well, I just looked at your races this year. 3:07 is a great time at TOU. Keep working on pushing that pace in your runs and you will do even better.

Did I already bug you about the Striders Winter Series in Ogden?

Kam- Oh yeah, I was going to look into that. I think there were a few races that might have conflicted with work, but nothing I can't fix too. I like the idea of racing in the winter. Did you sign up already? I plan to run the Provo Halloween Half in a few weeks. I wish they had a pacer. I think the next time they offer one in the marathon I will try it out. It seems like Allie's pacer was pretty helpful and supportive. But remember their profiles!? LOL.
