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 with Melanie along Jordan River Parkway with 15 x 1 min.

Felt good on the run, but tired later in the day. I took the kids to 7-Peaks for 3 hours and by about 4:00 p.m. I was ready for bed. Took a 1 hr 45 min nap, so nice. I was still laying in bed at 6:00 p.m. thinking about how I needed to get up to make dinner when my husband came home.

22 miles with Melanie up/down Provo Canyon/South Fork. It seemed nice and cool and shady. We only had the sun on us the last 3 miles or so. My left quad hurt off and on, especially the last 3 miles. I hurt it a little when I got up off the floor the night before, putting all my weight on one leg when it was bent so far. I should have stuck with the squats I was doing in the winter so this type of thing wouldn't happen to me again.
