2008- I ran a 10K and a couple of 5K's I guess you could say I'm a newborn runner.
2009- Finished the Hobble Creek 1/2 and the Provo River 1/2 And have done 3 more 5k's
2010 Got my PR with the Salt Lake City 1/2 marathon!!
2010 Ran my first marathon!! TOU! Woo Woo!
2011 ran the Salt Lake 1/2 with my brother. Then a few 5k's
2012 Salmon Marathon
Short-Term Running Goals: Maybe run a few more marathons?? Stay healthy, motivated and consistent. Races are fun, but unlike the hokey pokey, its not what its all about for me. Its about health, sanity and feeling great about myself bc I can call myself a runner. :)

| | My piriformis aka Butt muscle hurts. It was a little sore at the beginning but by the end I had to walk bc it was shooting down my leg on both sides and down to my knee. I believe it's bc 1. My leg muscles are deteriorating bc I'm a slacker. 2. I ran faster than usual on Satruday and was sore from that. {embarrasingly stupid bc it was only 3 miles} and 3. I might need new shoes?
Did Yoga and weights to help strengthen.I need a personal trainer so someone can kick my arse for me. make out.

| | I don't feel myself lately. I can't seem to get over my exhaustion all the time. I wake up with red eyes and feel like I'm in a dream most of the day. Last night I was in bed by 9:30 and out cold. Most likely scenario is I'm dying.
Ran the hills at Flat Iron, trying to see if the pain would snap me out of it and also if running uphill would help my piriformis muscle that still hurts. I don't know if it accomplished either but it still felt good to get out. make out

| | Slow going 2 miles. Lungs hurt, piriformis hurts, side aches..all the usual symptoms of a beginner runner. Squats, lunges, biceps, triceps, water, smoothies, healthy eating. Today is a new day. Everybody Make Out.

| | I felt like my spirit was trying to crawl out of my body and scream. I know that sounds crazy but my mind has been so full of so many things this past two weeks, and I haven't been talking care of myself. This morning I got the final news of Holly's passing and I can't explain it, but I couldn't get out of the door fast enough. A lot of times runs make me emotional, or my emotions come to the surface while running. I keep things bottled in a lot. I vent frustrations, but I don't deal with them if that makes sense. So running forces them to come out. Anyway..obviously my mind is still jumbled bc I'm all over the place even now, I sound like a crazy person. Maybe I am a crazy person now. I've been dealing with so many crazy people that I've become one of them. Ahhhhhh!
Anyway..songs today were "You don't know you're Beautiful" 1D and "Stay Beautiful" Taylor Swift. Beautiful was the theme. So todays run is dedicated to Holly Holbrook, she never came to the point in life to love herself and find out how beautiful she could have been. Soar High Holly and find your peace once and for all. xoxo.
