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.

Woke up again in the 0400 hour. My boy has been on a kick of peeing the bed for the past few nights in a row, after almost a year of no accidents. The laundry has been really fun lately, but even more fun, is the blood curling screams that come from his room when he wakes up wet. Scares us all.

6AM-Davis with Andy. I had Steve drop me off on his way to work so I could get some extra mileage on the way home. I thought today would be very icy, but it was only moderate. More traffic than usual. This run has felt easier today than in days past, even at an easy pace. We seem to always push the effort a little in the last mile. 8 miles (7:58). I need a few more miles, so ran home and ran 3 more miles around the neighborhood for 11 total, 7:51ap.

You averaged 7:32/mile for the 3 miles without me. I think I may be holding you back a little.

Uh huh, do you remember last week when I asked you to slow down? Also remember one of those miles was downhill!

Great run. I figured you would be sitting on the beach about now.
