Running Accomplishments:

My first 1/2 Aug. 9, 2008 2:16.12

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. :)

Long-Term Running Goals:

Keep Running and  Never Give up!

Personal:

Married, 4 kids, started running to lose mommy weight and have alone time. Now I run bc of EVERYTHING

strength, sanity, awareness, confidence, attitude, health, peace, life, and Because I CAN

Total Distance
7.30

Finally did something over 5. Felt good. Had to ditch some snow and ice patches here and there but its a sunny day so that's nice. Felt good to be alone in my head for awhile. Happy Running.

Nice.

What's wrong with 5?

I wanna get some YakTrax or Snowtrax (Costco) so I'll feel more safe running outside. I just know I'll fall and break something.

Good job for 7+ miles! Were you out between 9 and 10 by chance?

Stacie, Yes I was, why? did you see me? Nothing is wrong with 5 miles! 5 miles is more miles then I used to be able to run, Its just I feel like I need to be stepping it up more sometimes. I saw those things at Costco, do you think they really work?

JD, Yes. Yes it is.

Puddy was missing you:)You know I'm kidding about the 5 miles. My pediatrician is a trail runner and told me about the trax. Said they work. I wonder if anyone on this blog uses them?

Good job Lysa! It is kind of tricky to navigate the ice patches! I would also like to know if anyone uses any of the items you mentioned. I would think they would be hard to run in. But then ice is hard to run in too! :)

From Lysa on Tue, Nov 30, 2010 at 19:45:43 from 50.8.107.35

ugh, sorry Stacie, he can be such a pest! I need to remember to leave him inside when I'm gone.

From Lysa on Tue, Nov 30, 2010 at 19:45:55 from 50.8.107.35

was he howling or barking?

+1 for yak trax. they are excellent for running in this icy mess known as winter. i attribute them to saving my life on a few occasions...

nice miles today.

Be careful out there---it is so slippery!
