Running Accomplishments:

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 36 this year ~ 

Personal:

In May, 2013, I will have been married to my love, Rex, for 16years. And it just keeps getting better and better! Two beautiful daughters. Emma (8) and Ali (5). This is my ninth year teaching and I love that I get paid to do it! Running gives me energy, sanity and is simple joy for me.

ran for the first time since the marathon - felt a hitch on my left outside knee @ half a mile so I turned back towards home...but then it was like it stretched out so I ran another mile weaving through the neighborhood. Didn't want to push it, stretched, rolled and iced. I also started working glutes (Shelley excercises) for about 30 minutes

So happy to report a healthy run! 8:24 for mile one, 8:08 for mile two and 8:24 for the remaining! I had to stop and catch my breath after the second mile, but I couldn't help it. I felt soooo good to run :) Did my glude excercises yesterday, whew - getting stronger!

Made salsa most of today with Shelly and then went for a run out in the cool breezy evening. It was glorious. So nice to just go out and run --- oh and feel good too! average pace tonight was 8:42 - yesterday it was 8:55, again, staying limbered up and stretched/rolled out too!
