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.

This is just a guess since I don't know the 4 mile turn around very well. I didn't run 4 on the trail very much and then when I started running on the trail again I hiked it up to 5...know that turn around but not ready for it. 

The construction guys are coming today to rip out our back porch..sad..but happy news is that they will build a dining room in it's place for a mere 20 grand...oh and that includes a new roof. We've been waiting to do this the entire time we've lived here and I am soooooo ready. For any of you who have been to our humble abode and eaten in our tiny kitchen you may know what I'm talking about.

Now I'm dreaming of the table that will grace that dining room. We'll have to pay it off first but soon..soon...:)

Almost made it to four..almost..slowly building up. Nursing and getting woken up all night every night does a bigger number on my body than pregnancy. I'm usually back in shape for a couple of months and then ...pregnant again..;)

I've done three and am preblogging because I plan on doing one more when Kimia and Jeff come in a little bit. Jeff is trying to get enough sleep before the marathon this Saturday. 

I've been taking my kids swimming every day this week. It's going well..they are progressing every day. 

Did I mention that I'm going to learn to play the guitar. I've already learned two songs and I'm working on perfecting those...Benjamin accidently hit my guitar last night and then when I was trying to retune it a string broke..:( Luckily I have free repairs at the guitar shop that I bought it at for the first year.
