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.

Had a nice tempo run tonight. Got out kind of late because Sasha was at a meeting for church tonight. He walked around with the babies the entire 40 minutes I was gone....what a guy!!

I tried to do a tempo run because I was feeling very good today actually.

It's fun to be getting into shape....I think I experienced the perfect Runner's High today....I know why James has that as his blog name...I feel super...I'm thinking clearly and feeling on top of the world...and it's 10:30 at night.

I did the first mile in 10:30 or so and then picked up to 9:10 and then ran the next mile in about 8:30 (Sasha stole The Toy aka Garmin before I could look at my times ). Ended with a 10:00 mile feeling good. The best part is that first I recovered well from my race and second my heart rate was low and relaxed the whole time...yay.....

Nice! Amazing that you are feeling so great after running such a challenging course on Sat. Bravo!

Hey we must be on at the same time! I just saw your comment and I have to say that I wouldn't put it past you to run Boston someday. Anyone who can juggle all the things you are doing now can probably accomplish anything! But please don't do it pregnant. You'll make all us wussy women (who are incapacitated during pregnancy--like me!) look bad.
