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.

I was so excited because I thought I'd get 4 miles every day this week. But...Jacob woke up and he can climb out of his bed now so I had to stop at 2. We have a busy day going to the Leblow's house in the morning and Salt Lake in the afternoon but I may try to be brave and squeeze some in tonight. I'm sure most of you saw the amazing finish for Michael Phelps 7th gold. It was so incredible I still have goose bumps. I truly believe that my Sasha has as much determination, desire to be the best, dedication, love of  sport and all that good stuff...but for some reason ...I think Sasha calls it the mysterious quality X some guys have it and some guys don't. Wow..is all I can say.

Kids get in the way of us running moms sometimes, huh? But, that is why we love them! Great job and have a great day!

That was an amazing finish---and watching them recap it over and over and over (plus we rewound it a few times and tried to pause it just as his hand hit the wall--never could quite get it!) I bet that other guy is kicking himself...
