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 had a really good run today 47:43 for 5.05. Yay! And the best part was is that it didn't feel too fast. I've figured that pretty much I don't have enough time to rest during the day from running "faster than I have strength" I can run fast only if it feels fairly easy to me. 

I've had an upsetting day. The dentist is going to pull Jenny's molar because it abcessed...I really don't like dental stuff and we've had plenty of problems with our kids teeth..I'm blaming that on Sasha since he has foreign teeth so that must mean there is something wrong with them ...right(just kidding honey)...I don't have perfect teeth either so it just must be a bad mix...Ah well...they are awfully cute kids so I guess you can't get it all.

Lars has needed the computer to do homework this week, so I didn't know you were having a tough week. I am sorry to hear about your blood sugar crashes. And I don't like dentist stuff either. I hope everything works out with Jenny molar.

Maybe you should leave the watch at home for a while and just run on feel again. I worry about you. You've got a lot on your plate. And I want to be your friend for a very, very long time.

I love your ever optomistic attitude towards everything, I'm hoping to take that "woman" power and translate it into a better run tomorrow!! Thanks for the perspective.

(My other thought is that I've never done any kindof running on 20 something or less legs, I'm just curious how they would recover, I'm guessing faster inspite of the increaed "woman" power)

Wow, great run today!

Hope Jenny's mouth gets better fast. The tooth fairy is sometimes more generous with teeth that come out this way, I'v heard.

Sarah- No problem on staying at my parents house for the marathon. In fact, you will have the house to yourselves (and probably a few other bloggers) because both my parents will be out of town (and there are no kids left at home). My mom is actually moving to China for 2 months and my dad will be at a golf tournament until Sunday night. I think Steve and Ted might be crashing there as well, but there is lots of room so no worries. My mom said it was fine as long as everyone cleans up after themselves and changes the sheets! We are having the blog party there, so if your hands are kid-free, you can help us get the pasta ready! Oh- and Clyde said you may want to stay until Monday, which is fine.

Sarah, Happy Friday! Sunday was my first day to feel good all day. I hope your day went well. I am trying to sew like crazy to finish piecing a denim blanket for my sister-in-law. I am also trying to relax and breathe deeply. Last night I went to bed with an anxious feeling and woke-up with it too. I don't know what it is. I just had a nap and feel better. Maybe I am just tired. Miss you.--Adrianne
