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.

It is so nice to be blogging again. It makes me feel like I'm back in those early blog days with 5 little kids...life was hard but good.

overall time got a little bit messed up but ran the last half in 23:03..that is a good time for me! I tried picking it up to 9 min pace the last half and kept it up until my lovely hill right before I get home..but I didn't slow down on the hill as much as normal. Wore the heart rate monitor. When I was starting out ..9:30 9:40 ish pace I was at 135...on the way back it was 145 and on the hill 150...

Read a little from the book of Genisis and the blessings of land and family the lord promised Abraham.then Abram.  I feel the Lord has given us good things this past year.  We are thinking of adding on to the home this next year...and believe it or not after a somewhat tough recovery with Matthew I am already baby hungry....

Whenever I've been really baby hungry in the past it usually means I'm in for a wait....it's when I'm not even really thinking about the next baby that they are born close together....

Our take on planned parenting is that we plan to be parents and let the children come..and they have....and they are beautiful smart and wonderful children.

I love that attitude on parenting. A very good one. Thanks for the scripture reminder. I should shut off the computer and do something more "productive" - for my soul at least.

Nice job on the run, not slowing on that hill to your house is NOT easy!
