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.

Wow...it was kind of fun when I logged in and saw the calendar full of empty spaces to fill....I'm sure this next month holds challenges but it also holds excitement fun and of course miles to run and blog. We ran tonight because we took the kids to the zoo today after Sasha's victory at his race this morning. He is in really good shape. I'm happy to say that he only ran 90 more miles than me this week...okay okay it was really 91...help...what am I going to do with this man? He made the time to go to the zoo with us this morning although after only seeing the elephant show he innocently looked at me and said, "Should we go?" I talked him into seeing the tiger and the alligator and whatever we saw on the way...it was fun. Then we ran together tonight and had time for a 2 minute date on the the big swing someone set up on a giant tree limb. He also gave me a great kiss!! It made it feel like a date and was very romantic. So admidst 121 miles he still managed to go on an outing with his family(he also stopped by an educational store with the kids and bought them prizes for doing well on their runs lately) and have a date with his wife...what a man!!

Have you considered having Sasha push you in a stroller? That way you both get more miles in

Oh man, I'm still laughing from Michael's last comment. Sarah- sounds like you were reaping the benefits of Sasha's winner's high yesterday. Some well deserved family fun time for all of you! Congrats to him- but you know what they say- "behind every great man is an even GREATER woman!"

Oh boy, Michael gets the laugh of the day. Take turns pushing each other. I don't know when the last time Michael pushed even a 2 year old in a baby jogger, a darn lot of work.

Well I think it was Michael that said I should run 6 miles when we have six kids...maybe after six or more kids Sasha will have to push me in the stroller just to get me out of the house!!

Sweet... I am so amazed that Sasha can do anything after running like that.

BTW Sarah, I am so impressed by how well you are handling the 5 miles a day diet.
