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.

Slow miles	Fast miles	Total Distance
4.90	0.00	4.90

Started out slow again and felt good towards the end. I was telling Sasha the only reason I am still running 5 a day is because I almost always enjoy most of the last half of my run...sometimes only the first mile is difficult and the only 4 are fairly enjoyable.

Thanks for all the supportive comments...they help. :) :) :)

Hey Mama Sarah. If you're feeling up to it. I'd love to do some slower miles tommorrow. I'll check the blog later and you can tell me if you're up to it and when/where to meet. You're doing great!

Actually as far as scheduling goes this week is great. Sasha's partner is out of town so I could meet you and do a couple of miles together....What time works best for you? my number is 788-4608. I'll be out for a bit this evening....back by 9 for sure. Call or write...it will be fun to get together....

I could run up to your house (or meet at the park) and we can run your 2.5 down this end of the trail, then run back to the underpass. What time does Sasha come back and I'll come then to meet you at the park there.7:00 ish?

I can meet you about 7 by the power thingy near your house....it will give me time to warm up. Then we can run out to my 2.5 mark, turn around and whatever else we decide on...okay?

I've been warming up at an super super slow rate this week. I used to warm up at sub 12 and end up at sub 11...now somedays I even go as slow as 16 min on my first mile. I know I shouldn't be embarrassed by this since I'm pregnant but you still can't help wishing your body would cooperate to go a little faster.

so 7 by the power thingy..drop me a line to verify...see ya.

OK, I'm just looking for super easy sub whatever...I'll be running back up the trail by 7:00-- see you then! Have your Borscht recipe ready....Just kidding.
