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 have a race tomorrow that I was supposed to train through but I decided to taper a little bit and ran less...also I guess part of me was saving energy for the weed war in our front yard....a little old lady lived here and never really weeded very well..not that we ever weeded perfectly at our old house(well..I think I weeded better when I wasn't pregnant)

I got the garden planted with...are you ready... chives,cucumbers,dill, green beans, peas, peppers, tomatoes and zuchini, I can't spell that ....

I also weeded the entire front yard (not all today....it's taken me like two weeks of a little bit here and a little bit there) and planted petunias around the flag pole and along the lovely cement border by the bushes....

Of course I won't try and keep up the Jones' or that is the Johnson's across the street who probably spent $600 on gorgeous potted elaborate and luxurious combinations of flowers and ivy and whatever they put in those things....It's nice to look at but sheesh...I'll stick with my $10.00 worth of lovely red petunias.....we'll see how they survive my care...

more about running tomorrow after my race..hope it goes well....It will just be a training run since I'm not quite ready to go fast.
