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.
Feeling good..feeling like I could go longer. Sasha wants me to run the 4 mile Thanksgiving race. I say..if you are cooking the dinner you are not running the race...we'll see if I can convince him.

Hi, Sarah! How are you?! How is the new addition? I bet it's exciting! I think Emm and I want to wait a bit before we have our little ones. Especially considering I owe about 2 years of salary for college loans! (gulp!)

Wouldn't that be pushing your body awfully hard with a newborn?

no..he'll be 3 months old by then. I've run it when a baby was 2 months old...at 9 min mile pace. After the race I met a lady who also had a 2 month old and did it 28 minutes...a speedy 7 min mile pace that I can't reach even in my best shape...Sasha just wants me to run..not run fast..10 min pace if I can. He thinks it will build my confidence and I'm assuming he'll help out if I'm tired later. :)
