Once beat Cheryl at the Hobble Creek Half Marathon about three years ago, and kept up with Peggy for 100m four years ago. Completion of 52 marathons to date.
I enjoy the marathon distance. It demands consistency in training and provides a constant goal to work towards. Could not run without the support of my great family and friends.
Short-Term Running Goals:
Stay healthy would be the number one goal. To accomplish this long-term feat I need to cross-train and add strength training into the mix.
Long-Term Running Goals:
Someday I would like to qualify for Boston although at the moment it seems very tough!
Personal:
Love running, music, art, food, friends and family in no particular order it just depends on the day.
I love bringing humor to everyone's life! To answer your question from Tues., I'm trying to work back up to 40 miles/wk and keep that base through the winter.

Raz, lots of humor! Keep it up, it is the salt of the earth! - Maybe we should think of a logo and a name. Who knows, we might find something we like even better than Bingham Buttkickers. I have always enjoyed the immaturity of the name but I am open to anything.
Kelli, I am not very fast, and as dark as it was I lost track of where everyone went. And of course that early in the morning my memory is not good enough to remember everywhere Peggy told us to turn. So of course, I ran to West Jordan and back.
It was however a very nice morning I thought. Michelle's son sent us all an email telling us we need to rethink the name "Bingham Buttkickers", the only name I think is better is the "The Running Joke".
I saw her son's e-mail, but I did not know if he was serious or not.
I NEVER get Peggy's direction. Lucky for us 3 women today DEAN waited for us as we crossed 104th and showed us where we were going the rest of the time. I was LOST!! I need to go check these runs out during the daylight just to see where we went!
Have a great weekend and we will see you Tuesday! Oh, are you doing the pumpkin run? We will have to go cheer you on!
Kelli, Come run the Pumpkin Run, it is my favorite race of the year. What a blast! Oh, in my humble opinion the shirt is pretty awesome this year! I hope everyone likes the design.
Yeah, it is really dark with these early morning runs, I am not going to know what anybody looks like until spring. I don't think I could pick out the new comers in a line-up.
I am glad you are coming to the running group. It has been so much fun and something I look forward to. Plus, I don't think there is a better group of people and friends.
We have soccer games, but we might be able to catch the end of the race. Maybe I will just come and have Scott go to the game on his own. Can I still get a shirt if I did not pre-register?
Eric, Great job putting your miles up there. Maybe I'll do the same soon but not yet. Just remembe to keep things easy and what I mean by that is not slow all the time, just listen to your body. When you feel fresh and wanting to go faster then do that, just keep those efforts relatively controlled. No more than once or maybe twice a week. No long hard intervals right now until later on. Does that maybe help a little more?
Air, thanks for the feedback. Good solid advice. Running with the group a couple of times a week causes me to push to keep up. It has been helpful and the mileage increase is helping me hang around a bit more.
