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.

Tara....you are on FRB! Hooray!! Man alive you are fast. What is your next big race?

Did you see that Ryan Hall is doing a retreat.....it won't be nearly as cool as our buddy Kara's! I wonder when that video is going to come out. #dork

Josse- 2 dark 2b cool. Whatever that means:) how are you?

Toby- hi:) when is that video coming out!!? I wanna stare at us! Also, a Ryan retreat sounds not at all fun, but I do think Utah Valley would be fun! I was surprised that Hyrum got him to come to his race! That's awesome!

You know, Josse won that race several years ago.

Doing fabulous, kind of. Just trying to get back in shape after taking the summer off and not re-injuring the plantar. Tricky business
