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.  I got  up at 4:15 a.m. to run 10 miles before heading to girl's camp for the rest of the week.  My husband came with me on his bike.  That's true dedication/love, etc.

6 miles early in the morning at Camp Shalom, our stake girl's camp.  Started at 9250 foot elevation and climbed to 9750 in a couple of miles on trails.  My 6 miles took about as long as 8 usually does.  Felt like 8.

10 miles up/down Provo Canyon.  I got back from girl's camp around noon.  I should have left for the run at 7:00 p.m., and gone 18 miles but one thing led to another and we didn't leave until 9:20 p.m.  Brent came with me on his bike.  My head lamp doesn't work well and I could hardly see on the running trail.  I felt like the darkness was slowing me down.  When we got to Bridal Veil it was 10:00 p.m.  I was tired and had to get up early to speak about girl's camp in church the next day.  I also still had to make a pasta salad because it was my mom's farewell talk and we were having a bunch of family over for lunch afterwards.  Running at 10:00 p.m. seemed even more ridiculous than running at 4:30 a.m. so I turned around and only went 10.
