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.

Happy New Year. 

My sore hamstring was so bad on Saturday when I tried to run another mile I decided to rest it completely today. Funny how your body works. Now my back is hurting because I haven't run as much.....guess I sat too much yesterday. It makes me grateful that usually I can run and anxious to get back to it tomorrow.

The hamstring started hurting after 3 so I came inside and waited a bit and then went out for more....

All  6 of the siblings I grew up with were in Salt Lake today...it was fun to be together.

Did all 5 today...felt pretty good. The hamstring feels like it has for the past month or so...just a little bit tight and irritated. Sasha says it could take up to three months to feel better and to just run slower but keep up the mileage...any other opinions?

My hamstring felt strong today...no tightness or irritation. I'm excited especially because my partner comes back tomorrow and I want to be ready for her and not slow her down. She gets knee problems and actually needs to go faster for it...being airborne helps. Thanks to everyone for your sympathy.

yay...Amanda came home and still wants to run with me. I was worried with all the free time she had she'd have a chance to think over the benefits of sleeping in and getting fat and lazy and would decide running around the block with me at 6 a.m in the freezing winter weather wasn't such a good idea.  We went our normal brisk sub 10:00 pace and it felt super. 

My roommate from college and lifetime friend has been running. She looks beautiful. She has been getting up at 5:00 and running on a treadmill...now that's dedication...what a woman.

I don't know if we ran exactly 5 but we should get a few bonus miles for the weather today. ....sticky icky snow. I don't mind sticky icky snow except when I forget to bring something to hold my hair back with...so icky sticky snow mixed with stringy hair slapping my frozen face....it was probably the most miserable run I've ever been on...thank goodness I had a friend to share my misery.
