Running Accomplishments:

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!

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. :)

Keep Running and  Never Give up!

Personal:

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

did an hour of yoga and ran around the block for 1 mile to test out my ankle. It still HURTS! Ive pin pointed where it is injured or hurt now that the swelling is down. Its on the inside of my left ankle bone. I dont know what else to do, I cant just not run. And i dont want to hurt it more either. I dont think its any kind of fracture, just a pulled or torn something. Im not sure. Could a doctor even be able to tell? In the mean time, im really frustrated. Icing it now and maybe ill try again tomorrow. Have a 5 K on saturday and i DONT want to walk it.

i ran with an ankle brace on and it helped for the first 1/2 to 3/4 mile and then it started to hurt again. i kept going and by the last 1/2 mile i was limping home. I think i might call the doctor today.

went on a 8 1/2 mile bike ride and my ankle felt really good, didnt even notice it. So im glad i got my cardio in another way. It was a fun change. Still its not as hard as running, so i still think running is the more noble sport. My hubby would disagree completely. Hes a big biker. But we will see when he actually runs more than 3 miles and then he can compare the two.

So this was supposed to be a 5K but the people in charge of telling us when to turn around were like 8 years old and they didnt tell anyone to turn around, so we kept going. I had my garmin on so i knew we had gone too far, but i just followed the croud. Anyway, it ended up being an extra mile. It was fun though. And the BEST news is, my ankle didnt bug me at all!! So it was worth all the time off. Im so happy!
