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.

10 miles. Went back to the Dr. for the third time. She told me to take Ibuprofin. The antibiotic should have gotten the infection, so could be a virus or my body still fighting off whatever it is making me sick. I've had a headache everyday and now the body aches. I can't believe how bad I feel and that this has gone on for two whole weeks! Only three more days to get better. I'm going to sleep as much as I can and not run again until the race.

with all the antibiotic Julie, you need to take a VERY good probiotic, one with at least 1 million + of several varieties. Perhaps 5 million. It could have turned fungal/allergic.

I'm popping the probiotics and drinking Kefer. My husband gave me a blessing and I'm feeling a lot better. I hope you're all right and that I do great! Thanks for the support.
