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 only ran .3 of this but I did walk 2 miles. Yesterday was just too much for me. We had art class at my house in the morning, chess club in the afternoon and friends over for dinner at night. I'm kind of in the " I want to sit all day and relax" stage and hosting events all day long wore me out! So when I woke up this morning I seriously couldn't even run..walking was almost unbearable too. Sasha told me to "shake my fist" at the fatigue..not "get in a fight" however. So I just ran around the block once at a quick pregnant mama speed. I think I started out at 9:20 and ended up sub 10:00 avg for the lap. Yay..it gave me the confidence I needed to get through my day without feeling sorry for myself that I couldn't run this morning.
