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's been a nightmare week...Julia got lice from the girl across the street who had it for weeks and weeks and noone noticed....I think I'm gonna die....

Oh sorry to hear that! The boys brought lice home from school a couple years ago. Vanessa wasn't born yet so it was easy to deal with the boys hair--we shaved all their heads and had a big laundry day. I have not had to pick through long hair to get nits out but it sounds like a lot of work. Funny the things that nag childhood--we live out in the country and the kids play with dirt and animals so the boys have had several rounds with pinworms. The first time I was horrifed but then found out it was common in this area and just relax, it is a quick fix. Anyways energetic thoughts your way as you deal with lice--it is such a pain.

I think we are almost through with it...I'm being relentless in my efforts and hope it pays off by not coming back. Thanks..seems everyone has dealt with this at some time or other.
