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.

Good day for running..bad day for labor...I guess I'm going to Education Week today. Whenever I go I let myself have one long day. I'm meeting my midwife for lunch (she's going too) and I'll try to convince her to not talk baby with me at all. Yesterday she said he feels like a solid one...8 pounds at least....When I went 5 days overdue with Jacob he ended up being 9' 5!   Sasha showed me off to a Kenyan he happened to be running with today..."That's my wife and she's due in 4 days." with pride sparkling in his eyes (gotta love it). He thinks Patrick didn't understand from the blank stare. I think he just wasn't impressed thinking..so what..my mom walks 10 miles to the market while in labor..has the baby on the way..buys some fruit and comes home again to make dinner and feed the animals.

I met my midwife for lunch yesterday at Ed Week and we had a good time. She said most woman don't go early...so how come everyone else I knew that was pregnant in the next two weeks already had their babies?  1 day overdue isn't anything to complain about..my nerves are just shot.  I still have things I'd like to finish up so I guess I should just get busy and stay happy.  Thanks for all your thoughts and comments.  :)
