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.

Felt strong starting out and then died for a couple of miles and then perked up again. I think my overall time was just under 40 minutes ....I'm still learning how to use this watch and keep hitting split instead of start/stop...and Sasha thinks that is hilarious...grrrr

I think I was doing about 10:20 -10:40 pace for most of the run. I'm excited about bow making this week. I got some great ideas from the quilted bear but also decided that with most things I can of course do whatever I think is beautiful and not the cookie cutter stuff at the store..still..it was good to get some ideas. One of the ideas was bows made from crocheted flowers. I went to DI to try and find some cheap ribbon and came home with a scarf crocheted entirely out of flowers! It's got enough to make about 100 hair bows! I also got a grab bag for 4 dollars with everything from pin cushions to oodles of lace ribbons..already made bows and much much more!!

i didn't want to run today..at all..but I knew that that would be bad for my personal health so I went...The reason I didn't want to run was because of something Sasha said to me about my running form when I'm tired. I shuffle..literally...something I've picked up through months of running either pregnant or exhausted I guess..He told me I might as well get on a bike if I'm going to run like that...

So..depressed that maybe I should really be on a bike..I started out...I think I managed to not shuffle at all today and think I can change it and that it will actually help my running but I'm still feeling a little uneasy about whether or not I have it in me
