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 may do another mile with Julia this afternoon...or talk Sasha into letting me try cross country skiing. My legs are still sore but my hamstring was so bad I could hardly move. I am resting it.
Oh my! I've been out of town and haven't seen your blog in a while. So your hamstring has been complaining about being dragged 5 miles by your super-speedy hubby. Your hamstring probably has a point! I hope you feel better soon. I think I'd be willing to try a harness run with James, but 5 miles is a lot! Bravery is one of your strong points, Sarah.
Hello wonderful Sarah!! I saw you called two or three nights ago. I went to call you right now, but I can't find my phone. I thought I put it on the dresser. But, I couldn't find it. I didn't want to turn on the light and search more because Will was asleep. I'll try again tomorrow or Monday.
We are still in Ohio and loving time with family. My sister, Margaret, and her family arrived today. It's so fun to see her boy, Josh, and Will run around.
I am glad you had a good Christmas. I'm sure life is just different without Brother Johnson.
I hope you are able to recover from the harness run. My right hamstring/hip/nerve has been bothering me yesterday and today. It seems to come and go. I miss you. Happy Sunday!
