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.

12 miles up/down Provo Canyon avg 6:58 pace. It was raining a little and I was cold when I turned around. I'm so ready for warmer weather, I was spoiled in AZ last week.

I was supper tired this morning.  4 miles avg 7:25 pace.  Started feeling like I might get sick again in the afternoon, so I had a nap from 7:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. then got ready for bed and went to bed at 10:30 p.m.  I felt tons better the next morning.

20 miles.  It's amazing what sleep will do.  I headed out at 6:30 a.m. and ran up Provo Canyon to Vivian Park then down the canyon and to the Lakeside soccer fields by Utah Lake.  The first 5 miles were the hardest, most uphill and strong head wind.  Then the wind died down and it wasn't so steep.  Coming down and heading to the lake was great.  Avg 7:09 pace.  This run had an overall elevation drop.  I got really cold watching my son's soccer game though because I was sweaty.
