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:) Personal:

| Playing around the lake with Doni and eating delicous food while everyone else runs just a little more. We decided long ago this was going to be a real retreat since we paid for it. The hard work continues when I get back into Utah. Wait, who am I kidding, it's finally "off" season!

| Group run with Kara Goucher. She is just a treat. Loved running with all the ladies and running in the fall leaves. Easy 4 around 8:00 pace and an extra mile with Doni to make 5.

| Early Timpanogos with Scott and Craig. Somehow I have the course record for women on Strava (3:40:28). Wonder how fast I could really do it if I didn't take a bunch of pics, play around at the top, and use the bathroom. Sometimes you have to skip those things.:)

| Okay, this run will go down in history as the coldest and scariest. Ever.
Met up with Kenzie, Matt and Scott for a Red Baldy summit. Scott knew the way, except it was dark. Matt knew the way, except he trusted Scott. So off into the dark and frigid temps we went. Everyone was turned around up there and it was hard to find a good trail. We ended up taking a detour and each of us somehow got separated through the large boulder field. I ended up at some drop off, climbing up to the top and praying the entire way. My shoes were crap and my faith was too. Saying prayers along the way and searching for other head lamps for some direction, I ended up going back down and taking another route. I finally found Kenzie who seconds later slipped. If it weren't for her ninja grip, she would have fallen off a 500 feet drop off. A bit shaken and a blood blister on her thumb from her tight grip was the only things she walked off with.
The wind was so strong and cold, it was ridiculous. We didn't care, we got to bench and all huddled and shivered. At some point I dropped my water bottle, but I didn't care, I was over it! Originally it was supposed to only take 2.5 hours, but ended up being around 4 hours, so we eventually had to turn around and missed the summit by about 10 mins. The descent was even worse. We followed the men off the side and were slipping and sliding everywhere. My teeth were rattling so bad, I couldn't even talk!
Scott felt super bad about the whole thing, and Matt says he was never scared or cold. Haha. Kenzie about died and I vowed to get a piggy back next time.
The end.

| Such a fun morning with Kenzie B. We ran up to the Ave. Twin Peaks and I prentended to know where I was going the entire way. She believed me. Hey, we got there and we got back. It worked out!
"Kenzie, trust me. I've done this run hundreds of times. Of any route, this one I know." big lol.

| This was such a fun morming. Every year Zac M. throws himself a giant Olympus Peak party and invites the Wasatch Wranglers to come clebrate in costume. I had big plans to wear this impossible costume, but after a trial run the day before, I had to settle on a lame witch costume. Gosh it was slippery out there this morning! 6 miles, 4,200 vert gain and 1:43:00.
