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.

7 miles with Marie and Amanda.  Avg 7:19 pace.  I felt really tired. 

A few hours later I fell asleep listening to my son read.  Lights on 10 a.m. and I was falling asleep!

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."
