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 think it may be time to call it good and just do a mile each day until this baby comes out....I'm in the homestretch...I'm tired and need to taper as best I can :)
Your fitness is incredible to do what your doing so close to your due date. I received my clothes today. Thank you. Let me know what I owe you for shipping. Both Sasha and you are a wonderful blessing.
Kory: I don't think you owe us for shipping..it's all good. We've left things at people's houses when we stayed with them. Glad you got them back. I'm impressed Sasha remembered to ship them.
Camille: I am due in 13 1/2 days....not that I'm counting....so....I think I need to not overtire myself these next couple of days and make sure I'm rested for labor....in other words time to watch the entire Jane Austen set Sasha bought me for Mother's Day one more time. My kids hate it when I watch those movies because they go on and on...I love it!!
Actually I'm just planning on a nice 5K..it is my sixth for goodness sake.
I imagine that after telling my family and close friends around here the first thing I'll head for is the blog..if Sasha doesn't beat me to it..especially since I may not be going up and down the stairs for a couple of weeks!!
