| Location: Provo,UT,USA Member Since: Aug 02, 1999 Gender: Female Goal Type: Other 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 seven of the most adorable and talented children : Benjamin, Jennifer, Julia, and Joseph, Jacob, William and Stephen.
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 vivacious children. Favorite Blogs: |

| Adrianne and I ran 4 miles at about 10:30 pace. It was so good to see her again. She is a very uplifting loving person and it makes my runs so enjoyable. | | Comments(2) |

| Perfect weather today. Adrianne and I ran a nice 3 mile run today in lovely spring weather. Her baby Will came along in the stroller. I don't know if I wrote in here about my bad race a few weeks ago. I'm still feeling a lack of confidence in my running after that. We are training for a ten mile race but I'm race shy now...wonder if I'm getting old after having 5 kids so fast. | | Comments(1) |

| I didn't time the run today but Adrianne and I both felt like we booked it on the last two miles and I feel like I ran faster. I completely reorganized the entire toy room today and put every single toy back in it's correct place..it was exhausting but it looks wonderful....yay!!

| I think I ran these fairly fast (for me) but I didn't time them so I can't claim them as fast. | | Add Comment |

| Tempo run today. Warmed up 1 mile super slow because I was kind of tired from these weeks training already. Then I ran 2 miles in 8:30 and 8:20 ish...cooled down really really slow....I was feeling kind of sluggish. Felt tired after the run but then felt great today..made some super yummy enchiladas for dinner...think I'll add this recipe to my collection. Tired now..ready for bed...snore....

| Sasha and I made a date out of my run today. We got back from Salt Lake in the afternoon and got babysitters to come be with the kids this evening. Did a nice easy pace of about 10:00 minute mile and enjoyed the run for the most part. Jacob has been keeping me up the past few nights and I'm a little tired from that. I hope he sleeps well tonight.... It's Sasha's birthday today..I'm sure he didn't say anything himself. We had a small family party..I made his favorite cake...see my cake recipe for details....:)

| Adrianne and I ran today for the first time in a week. She is super fun to run with.....I appreciate her fresh perspecitve on life. She is always asking me fun questions that make me think. I love that. Her baby Will came with us today and was a perfect angel. | | Add Comment |

| I did a tempo run again today..felt much better since I slept better these past few days...although I have a yucky headache as I'm writing this. I cranked out 17:08 for the 2 miles with a 1:54 quarter at the end. The best part though was how quickly I recovered. I was able to run the 4th mile normally and go about my day without any extra fatigue (very important to a busy busy mom) Felt really good about the run | | Comments(2) |

| I was up half the night throwing up Wednesday night. Sasha thought running this morning would help clean me out the rest of the way...I was too stressed to enjoy it and only limped through a half mile and came home. I'm feeling very well rested and happy now and am looking forward to running tomorrow. | | Comments(2) |

| Tried to run today after a very rough day yesterday. I didnt' feel like pushing myself in the run but had a pretty normal day today. I hope to be able to get back to 4 or 5 tomorrow. Thanks for the encouraging remarks | | Comments(1) |

| Almost everything that could go wrong on a run went wrong today.....First even though I went right before I left somehow my bladder shrank and the contents expanded and I had an urgent need the entire run....but couldn't find an open toliet and wasn't about to use the bushes with everyone and their dog(literally) out tonight. Then my shoulder was tight and aching so bad I felt like crying...then to top it off I had cramps in my lower tummy general area.....I wanted to try four after hardly running this week and thinking before I got the flu I was in fairly good shape...With all the commotion going on in my body I couldn't concentrate on running and settled for less...then of course near the end I felt sick to my stomach and had to completely stop. I must not be completely over the flu...does anybody out there know how long it takes to get over it? I'm feeling like I'm never going to feel like myself again....I hate it when I feel that way.... | | Add Comment |
