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.

had a little bit better attitude towards the no shuffling running..I think it's making me depressed though because I'm not getting the same kind of run in that I used to...I'm a little bit grouchy today because of that..also..we adopted a cat so a little stressed and my mother-in-law is coming so I feel like I have to clean the house from top to bottom which is quite a task with little kids running around...my big kids are so helpful though

still a little depressed about the running. I feel like I don't do anything quite right in my life right now..need to refocus and not let myself get down about it.

good run today..I didn't even have to stop once to fix the form..that's encouraging. 

So we have an announcement to make. I had a premonition a few weeks ago that we would have twins soon. I thought that meant I was going to get pregnant with twins especially likely since my sister has fraternal twins so my chances are very high to have them also.

Well actually it meant we were going to adopt a new baby.  He's beautiful, black and glossy with yellowish eyes. He's about 5 months old so a little younger than William. Please don't send diapers as we have plans to have him potty trained by the end of the week.

P.S. Does anyone know a good vet?

had to stop alot today but I'm slowly getting use to the new running form and eventually might even like it. I felt pretty strong, however, on the last mile or so.  That was promising.  Thanks for all the nice comments yesterday.  Is the beginning of school stressful for moms or is it just me?
