2012 St. George Marathon 2:54:39 Long-Term Running Goals: I love to run! I want to feel good and run for a very long time. Personal: My husband Brent and I live in Orem with our three kids ages 12, 10 & 7. Brent is a Marriage and Family Therapist and I'm at home with the kids. I used to be a CPA, but now I just do a little bookkeeping from home. For a lot of years running a marathon was something I did to get back in shape after having a baby. Just finishing was accomplishment enough, now I want to finish faster.
I ran the St. George Marathon in 3:18 when I was 18 and set a record for my age division 15-18. Now I train with the girl who broke my record. I love the marathon and half marathon. Long runs are what keep me from going crazy. Favorite Blogs: |

| 4 easy miles on my treadmill. avg 7:03 pace. It is 14 degrees outside and I just didn't want to face the cold. I'm so sick of winter! I've done 14 degrees before, but the wind is blowing today so it feels more like single digits to me. I also have so many other things to do today. This will be an easy week I guess. | Add Comment |

14 miles total, but not as impressive as it sounds. I went on a 7 mile trail run with several people. I planned to run 7 miles home with a friend, but she didn't come. I was going to go 14 for her, but for me 10 was fine. I definately wanted more than 7, especially after my pitiful runs Tues & Thurs. So after standing at the park for 10 minutes I got a ride part way then hopped out 3 miles from home. I was freezing after I got out of the car and started thinking things like, "Maybe I should have just gone home, I probably don't really need this last 3 miles etc." Then I realized, "The car is gone. It makes no difference what you think now. You're three miles from home and the only way to get there is to run, so just enjoy it." After about 3/4 a mile I felt good again and enjoyed the run home. Later that afternoon my brother called and asked if I wanted to run 4 miles with him. I couldn't think of a reason why not so I put back on my wet running shoes and did another 4. So my 14 was more like a 7 mile run, then a 3 mile run, then a 4 mile run. | Add Comment |

| 11 miles part trail run with some Sojourner runners. I don't like trails. I twisted my ankle a few times and jared my back. My siatic hurt the rest of the day and all day Sunday. I had my boys (age 9 and 7) dig into my hip and back with their elbows and pull on my leg Sunday morning. That helped a little. Sunday night my husband massaged me realy good. I feel much better Monday, but it was frustrating to be in so much pain for two days. I won't be doing a trail run next week. | Add Comment |

10 miles in the snow with my husband on his bike. I was really hoping for good weather on this run, but it didn't happen. This was my birthday weekend! I'm 38 now.
On my birthday my almost 5 year old daughter said, "Happy Birthday mom. You're 28 right?" I said, "38. Does that seem old?" She said, "Ya, but at least you don't look older than before." I asked what she meant by before and she said, "Yesterday, when you were 37." | Add Comment |
