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 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.

Don't you mean no butt pain?

I just want you to be able to run pain-free again!!

Hi Tara! My name is Brooke. Russ told me about you and Kam who are fellow Davis County people! I was starting to think the only other bloggers were in Utah County or out of state. I'm in NSL. Sorry to hear you are dealing with an annoying injury! Such a bummer. You'll be back to normal before you know it. :)

From glidergirl on Tue, Jun 19, 2012 at 21:54:39 from 71.35.231.152

PS - are there other bloggers up this way besides you and Kam that you know of?

From Burt on Tue, Jun 19, 2012 at 23:52:18 from 72.223.80.161

Yes Tara, maybe some actual cool bloggers up that way?

From JulieC on Sun, Jun 24, 2012 at 09:02:57 from 71.35.251.72

where is your pain exactly? I am PTing it the next two weeks too.

From Tara on Mon, Jun 25, 2012 at 11:03:10 from 75.169.155.164

Burt- I meant Butt pain, yes!

Andrea- So good to see you last weekend. Take care of those nagging injuries too!

Brooke- SO happy to have met you! Join Kam's facebook page for South Davis runners. Let me know your first name and I'll send a request to you, if you're on FB.

Julie- Let's cut off our hamstrings together. You go first.:) I responded on another post of where my pain is, but its where the hamstring attaches to my pelvis muscle in the back. OUch! Yours? Misery loves company, huh;)

It was so great to meet you, too! :) It's fun to read your posts and know exactly where it is you're running LOL. My name is Brooke Peacock on FB. Is that the same group you were telling me about? My number is 801-910-2801 for the text thing for the Mon/Wed group (or whenever they meet).
