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: |

| 1 lousy mile on the treadmill. My right hamstring hurt really bad, like I was having a pinched nerve. Got in the hot tub and really dug into my butt muscle to try to work out the problem. | | Comments(5) |

| 10 miles with Melanie and Melody. We ran up Provo Canyon a couple of miles then down and around the Riverwoods a couple of times then back to our cars. Avg 6:56 pace. The first two and last two were slower. We ran about 6 miles at a faster pace. | | Comments(1) |

| 10 miles with Melody and Melanie from Melanie's home in Lehi. This was a cold somewhat miserable run. We headed north/east to do our Burger King run, but when we got to the top of the hill at mile 3 the wind was terrible. We turned around and went back by Melanie's house and headed west towards the Jordan River trail. About a mile before we were to turn around the wind picked up again, then it seemed to swirl always coming at us from the front or side as we made our way back home. This run felt 3/4 into the wind.

| In way too much pain to run today. My hamstring was so tight that it pulled on my leg and gave me a pinched nerve feeling etc. Couldn't even walk without pain. I spent a while sitting in the hot tub digging into it trying to loosen it up. Melanie even stopped by my house on her way somewhere and put her elbow into it for about 10 min. By the end of the day it felt a little better, but I still had a big problem. | | Add Comment |

| 14 miles with Melanie. My leg only hurt a little off and on during the run. Avg 6:58 pace. I was hopefull it wouldn't bother me too much later in the day, but when I woke up from a nap it hurt again, but not as bad as after Thursday's run. I had my husband dig his elbow into it that evening. I can tell it's making progress. | | Comments(2) |

| 8 miles with Melanie. We ran 4 outside then went into the treadmills. Melanie wanted to do some speed work and I wanted to take it easy and get my hamstring better. | | Comments(1) |

Today is my 40th birthday! Went to a spin class with Melanie and lifted weights.
I put corn starch in my hair before waking the kids up so my hair would look like it had gone grey over night. They thought it was funny. I remember my dad doing that for his 40th birthday. There are a lot of things about birthdays I don't remember, but the corn starch at age 40, that I remember.
I told my kids they should carry on the tradition when they're 40. I held onto a package of corn starch I used for something 9 years ago because I planned to use it when I turned 40. I said I would give the package to Canyon when he was 39, he could pass it down to Eli, then he could pass it down to Elsa. Eli said, "But what if I turn 40 first?" We looked at him funny and he realized that was impossible. Good times! | | Comments(4) |
