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.

50:08...recovering from the race and felt pretty much back to normal today.

Funny story for the day. We took Joseph(our 2 year old) to see Santa Claus at the mall. He said, 'I want to sit on the bunny's lap" After sitting on the grandpa's lap and telling him all his christmas wishes, Joseph's eyes were opened. Matter of factly he stated later in the day, "Santa Claus is not a bunny."

Sarah, don't know if you already read this info off my blog...just disregard if you have.

Here are some websights for info on horseback riding lessons.

utahhorsedirectory.com (stable locations in Utah County)

welcome.net.au/lessons.htm (general info on lessons and pricing...not certain how this will compare to pricing in our county)

Melville Arabians is the closest stable to you, I think. They don't have a web address. An English (style of riding) trainer by the name of Susan (at 367-9492) can answer any of your questions.

My father, Ike Fitzgarrald, works out of Coyote Creek Equestrian Center in Lehi and instructs in English riding. He doesn't often school young riders, but you may call him with questions if you wish.

You can expect to pay probably anywhere from $25-$75 for a lesson. It will vary a good bit from one instructor to another. Lessons are typically given in half-hour to hour sessions. You may want to consider Western riding for a young rider in part because of the deep saddle and because it is a more casual style of riding.

Also, students may choose to take part in group lessons, where a handful of riders take a lesson together. Anyhow, hope this helps.

Let me know if you need more info.
