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.

I got all 5 in but I couldn't beat the 11:30 girl today...sigh. I think that cough knocked something out of me that I may not get back. I'm thinking of cutting down to 4 a day. I don't want to be out exercising for longer than I was before I got pregnant....doesn't make sense somehow.

Way to keep up your running Sarah. Remember after the birth of your child, you need to increase your daily mileage to 6 (1 mile for each child). You commented earlier about running for two - maybe you are allowed to double your mileage i.e. 5 miles x running for 2 = 10 miles. You may have to ask Sasha if thats allowed with Fast Blog rules.

I LOVE IT!! Yes...maybe I'll be able to convince him that cutting down to 4 will mean I'm really running 8 miles....great..I also like the phrase you coined. Fast Blog rules...I think it's a keeper. And you are right....after number 6 I'll be at 6 miles a day...uh oh.

From what I've read, when pregnant you can maintain, but definately don't up the intensity or workout. So I think you are right on! Spying on the comments above, "FRB rules" love it!

Sara-

I have a non running question for you. I am working on my food storage right now, when you gets oats, what kind do you get? Quick oats or reg rolled oats?

Good prices, the best I've found. The drawback is that they deliver by truck and you have to be at the drop off location when the truck arrives to pick it up. We get regular rolled oats.

Thanks Sasha, just got a catalog in the mail and my sister-in-law and I are putting a order together. They have everything and prices are great! They dont drop in SG but they do in Cedar so that will work out ok.

Sarah,

You are doing great! You are the one who knows how you are feeling and what is right for you and that cute little "wombmate" of yours! You are definitely an inspiration to all of us!
