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.

Stopped a tad early because of some braxton hicks. 

Got passed by a little boy running away from his pet dog that was trying to eat the bread in his hand. Did not get passed by his big mama and their pet dog...phew...at least I've got a little bit of speed left.

Can I just say that i think it's amazing that you can run 2 miles while in your third trimester. I just had my first baby in December, and was high risk, so I couldn't do anything. But let me tell you, there is NO way I could run like that. You are amazing and inspirational!

Hey Camille..I've heard alot about you from Lybi. She is a fun lady isn't she? Thanks for the comment. I've decided to make a joke out of how slow I'm going now and watch for who or what (that is also going slow) can pass me. :)

I bet you have a lot of people staring at you in amazement as you run by. :o) I'm pretty slow too (without any good reasons) and always have to just think happy thoughts when I'm passed by someone. I usually have to tell myself I'll be that fast someday. (we shall see).

I love your family picture. It's very cute.

The fastrunningblog party is going to have to do without the fast running mommmy this year. I'm too scared to travel this close to my due date..three more weeks..give or take a week...so I'll be home thinking of everybody!!!(of course I'm also scared to be alone this close to my due date..everyone pray I don't have a baby this weekend!)

From Lybi on Wed, Oct 01, 2008 at 21:25:49

Oh no! Stay off your feet! Relax, and... hmmmmmm. Wanting to go into labor seems to be the most effective way of delaying it, if I remember correctly. So you might try that. :)

I'll miss you. I can't imagine you 8 months pregnant! You are still teeny tiny in my head.

Ha!! That's right...I'll try meditating to bring the baby here like I did with Joseph..he came on his due date...after the new year and after the tax deduction deadline...the meditating did not work.

An old high school friend is stopping by tomorrow and I'm a little disturbed that he'll have to see my lovely beached whale figure..not that it should matter...sigh..but it does. :)
