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 guess I'm getting use to the new form...I am a shuffler no longer..I've noticed that I can't really go very fast yet on any of the stretches either..I guess that will come in time.

Sarah - what did you do to change your form?

It may not be what everyone needs but for me I needed to kick my feet back a teeny bit instead of letting them drag on the ground. In order to run this way for all 4 miles I have to run a steady pace the whole way and not slow down and speed up like I used to.
