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.

4 miles up/down Provo Canyon.  It was nice to be home and after my Saturday run in humid New Jersey I really appreciated the dry Utah air.

8 miles @ 7:07 pace.  Got up at 4:45 a.m. to get in a run before heading to our church Young Women's Girl's Camp for the rest of the week.  I'm the Laurel's advisor and on the camp committee.  When I got home after my 8 miles I said to my husband, "I really needed that."  It was such a good run for me mentally.  To be away by myself for a few minutes, breath fresh air, and listen to the silence, or rather the wind in the trees.  I just wish I would have had time to go longer.

10 miles through Orem and up Provo Canyon and back home, 7:07 pace.  I was too tired to get up early, but it was so hot when I went at 10:00 a.m. that I wished I would have anyway.  I slept pretty good the first two nights at Girls Camp, but the last night I stayed up past midnight cleaning up, and then a train came through right next to our camp ground waking me up every two hours, until I got up at 6:30 a.m.
