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 with Shelley, perfect weather today! We ran west side out to County Line road then cut over to East River Road, loop into Freeman and home. 21 miles with AP of 8:47 (pretty dang excited about how good and steady that pace felt!! Nervous that @ mile 19 I had to stop and really stretch out, my IT band was really pulling around my knee...like pain. Then drank some red power aide and felt amazing, but the last quarter mile it really hurt. Feels fine now after ice bath and rolling and stretching. I will continue with stretching and really focus on rolling, icing and stretching well for the next few weeks. Overall, I feel amazing and ready to tackle the day with my family!!
