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.

Today was easy as a result of using a porta potty near the trail. The smell was so bad that it triggered my gag reflex for the rest of the run. Easy miles with the last three modestly progressing to 7:15, 6:53, 6:22. Those times are off memory. Andy knows the real times, but no one cares. Not even me. Not Andy, the times- I think.

Steve promised to run a 2 mile trial on the track tonight and invited my presence. I have to be careful to be totally supportive or he may never do it again. So likely some PM miles.

I told you never to use the porta potty after Andy!

YOU NEVER TOLD ME THAT! Good to know:)

I'm not sure my self esteem can handle any more of your tempo Tuesday reports.

Andy, I'm not quite sure how you became the scapegoat for every Tempo Tuesday report. Seems fitting for some reason, but that doesn't make it right. For that, I offer free counseling on our next tempo. Besides, Burt got it wrong. I must of used the porta potty after Kam. We can say whatever we want about him- he's never on here anymore anyway.

Yeah, never.
