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.

Pretty good day today. I started getting the ligament cramps again...I think my body knows it's heading for the third huge trimester. My stomach tries to defy gravity when I'm pregnant by sticking out front and center...I don't carry on the side or in my ribs or hips or the other crazy places some women's bodies hide their babies.  Thus..my ligaments sometimes rebel and try to bring my stomach back to earth.

The pregnancy belt worked fairly well. I slapped it on when the pain started and ran the rest of the way with relative ease. We'll see how tomorrow goes.

I left you a a return message on my own site see I'm so new. well you can read it there and your pregnant and running we just were discussing that with my last daughter 17 years ago ahhh I'm 42 anyways worked out until my 8th month and then had her in 1 hour so look forward to a great labor happens usually when your body is in good shape!

Good Luck!

Actually the system set up sends you an e-mail whenever a comment is posted on a blog that you commented on..so either one is fine. 1 hour labor would be nice..maybe even too fast. I actually did have my best labor however when I was in my best shape...we'll see. Also whenever I've had my babies at home I get to an 8 with very little pain. (I've had 5 babies...2 at home...number 6 will be at home too)

Those ligaments are SO painful! They got worse with each of mine :( I feel your pain. Your mileage is so wonderful!
