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.

My calves were still tight today but not as bad. I ran slower the first mile. 

This guy on the trail made my day. I often wonder how people can look at me with my big pregnant belly and not doubletake. He grinned at me this morning and said, "You are a hard worker." When I get good honest compliments like that I can live off of them for a few days at least. I need to introduce him to the blog...I think he's the type to love the fun community we have. I see him everyday and he seems really nice. Of course I am wisely hesitant in talking to strange men.

I love seeing the same wonderful people on runs! Your same-time-running-friend seems really cool. Will's and my same-time-running-friend is a man that mows the lawn. Because there are so many grounds here to mow, we see he at least once a week. He is a grandpa with a very nice smile.

I couldn't get a yes or no from Will on if you could call your William Willy-Billy-Baby-boy. But, Will is such a sweet boy, I don't think he'll mind.

Have a wonderful night!

By the way, where did the tight calves come from?

Talking to strange men is how I met my husband! Then again, you are already married...send your husband to talk to him!

Once again, you are amazing! I so wanted to be a pregnant runner with all of my pregnancies, but only pulled it off with my first.
