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.

I only did 3 today because I just wimped out and felt too pregnant..now I feel that feeling of..whoops..didn't run enough today and I've got too much energy. Gotta love my body. I do my 4 yesterday and then felt worn out and try to cut back today and my body wants more!!!  BTW..pray for us...the VC's of Sasha's main client in California laid everyone off outside of the California office...so it was either move to California or find something else.  Waiting for the something else.....

pretty solid today. Felt kinda tired starting out but then I warmed up and kept going at a pretty good pace for all 4. So everybody in my ward freaking out about the trail has gotten to me...I studied up on people using something called wasp spray. Turns out the wasp spray is just that....stuff they sell at home depot so you can kill wasps or other flying pests. I don't know how I feel about using it on another human being..even if they are attacking me. People that teach self-defense have started to advocate it because it sprays further and more accurately.  Then I also read that maybe there are pepper sprays that also spray at a long distance. Gonna check into that.

I was so emotional on the run today. I was crying while I was running....luckily when I got home I realized..yay...it's friend day and we got to go to my friend's beautiful home in Alpine where the kids had art classes and we played all day. She made homemade donuts with soaked wheat dough fried up in non-hydrogenated coconut oil, topped with sucanat frosting...delicious!

needed to cut it short today...feeling like the emotions have evened out today. I've accepted Sasha change in employment and wondering what new challenges await us. :)

I'm so slow now!!! but I still feel like I need to keep up the mileage as best I can until the end. I really feel like I'm just kind of wimping out at the end of this pregnancy. Usually I feel okay to be pregnant and have the baby inside not messing with my sleep but I'm starting to feel that urge to just get the baby out....it's going to be a long 8 weeks....
