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

Left at 4:40 again. Did the same route as last time except we ran along 13th after the round-about to the end and then turned back around and ran for 10 more min. I say 10 min. bc I left my freaking garmin at home!! aaahhhhh! I felt so naked. But I knew where 8.5 was so I think we did a pretty good job at making it 12 without knowing for positive.  Pretty uneventful run until the end where my EPL {emergency poo light} went on. I had to run to the bushes!! That has NEVER happened to me before and I debated putting it on the blog. TMI reasons. But I also feel it to be a right of passage as a runner. Maybe I'm wrong in that but it seems like it should get the same recognition as losing your first toenail.

Anyway..Sorry about this entry. Get High anyway..its all good.

yeah! 12 miles! that's a pretty early start - you guys are dedicated!

congratulations on your first "stop and drop" as i like to call it. it's been a while since my last one, but i'll always hold those moments close to my heart.

I guess I need to clarify. My EPL has come on before on a run, but I've always been by a bathroom of sorts. I have never had to take off in the bushes. Ew.

EPL! ahaha. does that come standard with a garmin? great run today. sorry about the unexpected [ahem] at the end, but it happens to everyone. if it makes you feel better, the olympians don't even bother to stop...poop your pants or lose $500,000...take your pick...

i'll have to remember to avoid the bushes near that roundabout.

holy crap! 4:40amd and 12 miles! You should be so proud of yourself! amazing! You went from running at 9am to 5am! craziness!

I don't want to hear about poo.

I think we'll run that same route tomorrow. I need some downhill to rest my issue areas.

You had the POO POO (S)PLATTER! I hope I don't have to endure that right of passage ever.

EPL- HAHAHA! I'll have to add that to my vocabulary. That is awesome (not that you had the EPL, but just the use of it...) :)
