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.

2 miles, early in the morning. No time for more. I realized about a mile into my run that I needed 15 more minutes to get ready for our church young women's camp more than I needed 2 more miles. I didn't wear my watch, but I ran fast and my lungs were burning at the end. When got done I wish I knew how fast it was.

No time to run this week. I was the ward camp director for our young women's camp. That means I was in charge of 17 girls and 5 leaders. I feared I would go crazy by the end of the week if I didn't run, but I think the lord blessed me and I felt great. The week was so wonderful. I got less than 6 hours of sleep every night, but it's easier to feel ok on 6 hours when you don't run. I got home today, Saturday, and wanted to run in the evening, but the only 4 1/2 hours of sleep I got the night before caught up to me and I just went to bed instead. I could go on and on about how wonderful the camp was, how everyone amazingly got along and how I felt so inspired in everything to do with it, but this is a running blog. I just added it up. Only 10 weeks to St. George. I need to really step up the training!
