I began running for my first time about 3 years ago. I remember calling everyone I knew the first time a ran 2 miles w/out stopping. I ran Mesa Falls half marathon @ 2:21 in fall 2009. I ran Salt Lake half marathon spring 2010 @ 1:54. Then I ran Missoula, MT full marathon summer 2010 @ 4:25. I was injured (IT Band) for Portland marathon (fall 2010) but went and picked up my packet anyway. Ran Ogden 4:26....
Short-Term Running Goals:
Over the next two years, I would like to improve my strenghth and speed.
Long-Term Running Goals:
I WILL qualify and run Boston before I turn 40. I just turned 35 this year ~
Personal:
In May, 2012, I will have been married to my love, Rex, for 15years. And it just keeps getting better and better! Two beautiful daughters. Emma (7) and Ali (4). This is my eighth year teaching and I love that I get paid to do it! Running gives me energy, sanity and is simple joy for me.
Early morning therapy with Alana! Shin a little sore, but cannot believe how much better it feels today. I will stay on the advil and icy hot. Also, have iced this morning, I will at noon, after school then again tonight. Then I like the idea of epsome salt bath ~ how nice!
all of me felt great ~ wanted to do 20 but my shin was really sharp and crunchy :( ended up calling rex to come scoop me. I struggled with walking around church - kept leg up, advil, ice and icy hot on the outside. Soaked in hot epsome salt bath at night - feels so much better!
