Running Accomplishments:

I ran the Top of Utah Marathon in 4:43 after having my third child the year before. 5 K in 24:19, 10 K in 53 minutes pregnant. Survived personal training from my lovable but slightly overbearing husband Sasha for more than 8 years!!

Short-Term Running Goals:

Break 23:45 in the 5k.

Long-Term Running Goals:

Stay thin and full of energy.

Not be an embarassment to my family full of world class athletes.

Personal:

Madly in love with Sasha. We have been married since 1996 and have been blessed with six of the most adorable and talented children : Benjamin, Jennifer, Julia, and Joseph, Jacob and William.

I am getting back into shape after recently  having delivered William on October 24, 2008.

All of our children have run in at least one race, including Jacob and William who did it inside the womb. I enjoy various non-running activities such as: baking, sewing, playing organ, piano and flute, painting, and playing with our six vivacious children.

Well..I did it..first time for 2 miles. I could have of course done it the day after I had the baby except that I'm no dummy and give my uterus plenty of time to heal. It felt sooo good. My legs were not sore. That is one part about running pregnant that I won't miss....no more feeling like my legs are going to fall apart every time I step on them. I think I maintained a good pace again today. Hard to say because I didn't take the Garmin but I know the feel of 20 minute pace versus 12 and it was on the 12 end again. I'm so grateful to be able to move again. I did feel a  bit tired but pushed through it. I'm sleepy now and may take a catnap before facing the rest of the day.

(for instance..i'm rocking William in the bouncy seat as I type and his brother accidently dropped a book on his face...luckily it was a paperback...sigh....)
