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.

By the grace of God I ran today.  Yesterday the children and I were traveling north on 1-15 and hit some ice.  We fishtailed out of control and then did a 180 off the freeway.  I believe it was a miracle that 

1.  I did not hit any other cars.

2.  I did not roll over

3.  The place we went flying off the freeway was a small flat field.  There is construction on 1-15 right now and there are concrete barriers every where.  There is no doubt in my mind that it was indeed a miracle that  helped us get through this near terrible accident.  

No one got hurt..no other cars got hit or hit eachother...it was indeed a miracle.  

 

Sasha comforted me greatly and I think I may be able to drive again soon but I am struggling to feel safe right now.

How scary Sarah! I skipped my dr appt in provo because david called and told me the freeway was SUPER slick. Miracles happen EVERY day and I am SO happy you and your family are safe. Our angels have been working overtime!

The fear will subside. You might cry a bit, but crying is ok. :)

xoxoxo

Sasha gave me a blessing the next day and reminded me to have faith...and not fear and actually I feel almost better..when I feel the faith. :)

Sweet, you have a good and faithful husband for sure.

I often wonder how many times we are spared our lives while driving and are not even aware of it, ya know?

Very scary. I'm glad you made it through this safely.
