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.

My mother in law is in town. She can watch the kids for small amounts of time. I can't leave them later in the day to run....but if I get up early enough I can get my run done all the trail before most of them wake up. She's an awesome grandma just not used to so much commotion as we have at our house...I'm not used to it either but I'm still in charge of it....the darlings. :):)

I tried going much slower today to see if I'm not so tired during the days. I've getting drowsy while driving across town. I feel great on my runs but seems like it's taking a little too much out of me. ran 11-12 minute mile pace and it even felt hard at the end...I feel much better today however...

The baby and I ran a break neck speed of 11 minute mile pace. It felt really really easy. My plan is for the next few weeks,months, years only run what feels easy so I don't crash my car. Actually I really just need to get a thyroid test done. Drowsy driving for me isn't so much that I'm running hard but that there's something funny going on in my body.

Sasha probably wrote about the police car driving ON the trail this morning and the funny happenings around the two railroad bridges. The saga continued when I saw a perfectly normal idiot standing on the railroad track..just standing there waiting for a train to come and kill him and probably derail the train and kill many innocent people and cows. Weird.

We are going to St George today..maybe just thinking about it is making me more tired than I was yesterday. Since I don't have to drive...Sasha is awesome at driving long distances without tiring. I can sleep in the car.

2 in Steve and Kendra's swanky neighborhood. Got a kick out of running pass several houses for sale that made Steve's house look very affordable. One was for $1,000,000 and it was on 2 acres of land and had a house maybe 4,000 square feet or so.  The one next door had about 100 palm trees planted in a paradisical setting with a industrial type playground for the kids and a house that had to be about 10,000 square feet.  It was on 5 acres and didn't have a price listed...It was very pretty to look at as I ran past. 

1 mile at home...no palm trees or paradisical settings but my neighbors in the trailer park had a cool sprinkler..does that count. :)
