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 bit short because I wanted to save my legs for the hike we were going to do in the afternoon. We hiked to Timp Caves...not a hike I would recommend for people with lots of little kids unless you have help...It was beautiful and humbling..not too intense but considering I was carrying a baby...a little bit more work than by myself. The only problem was the narrowness of the trail and the drop offs....I'm still having a little stress thinking about what if someone had fallen. We didn't though and all made it up and down safely..and it was worth it to see the spectacular beauty of the caves. They were fabulous. And it was worth it to see the pure delight on my little kids faces. Jacob, the baby, was especially worth it. He was very animated clapping and babbling, pointing and cooing...who says they don't understand anything. Joseph had a great time too. With wide eyes he said with confidence, "We're not stuck in the caves, Mommy...." It was great..but I don't think we'll be doing it any time soon. Thanks to Elizabeth and Ted and James for all your help and for your wonderful company.
