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 avg 7:11 pace. My hamstring was a little better. I still didn't rub it out over the weekend like I should have so I dug into it a little when I got home. Hopefully tomorrow it will feel good.

10 miles avg 7:13 pace. It felt so good to go 10 miles again. All except the dull aching pain in my hamstring. At least it wasn't a sharp piercing pain like last week.

I met Marie and Rebecca for a run. Marie ran a 6 mile loop with us and headed home from the start of the Canyon. Rebecca and I went up the canyon a few miles and I ran her back down to the drinking fountain. At this point I had 10.5 miles at an average 7:30 pace. I headed back up the canyon a few more miles and then home for a total of 20 miles and an average 7:15 pace. Why did I run 20 miles today? That's what I was thinking at about mile 16 when I started to feel tired. I guess "Because I can."
