Running Accomplishments:

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.

Total Distance

10.50

Met the group for a run in Riverton. Ran through some familiar roads and some unfamiliar places which made it nice. Sometimes it is nice to mix-it-up a bit. It has been over a week since I have been able to run with the group because of work deadlines so it was nice to be back in the thick of it. A lot of people were still sore who ran the Snow Canyon Half. Sort of makes me want to run it next year.

I put in my registration for the Las Vegas Marathon this upcoming December. It is a crappy course and the race organizers skimp on everything but promotions and marketing but hey, it is a marathon. I also bumped my registration for the Tecumseh Trail Marathon to next December. Can't wait to get back and run that race. It absolutely destroyed me last year but this time I will be ready. Also the race support was phenomenal. Hot chocolate and cookies for every aid station, beef stew at the finish and technical jackets for all the finishers. It is a great race for anyone that is interested. The website is:

I'm glad you were able to run with the group today. I hope to be back in another week or two.

You are looking to run the races that kick everyone's behind?? HMMM.....

Here is a question: have you ever done or do you know anything about the Cold Turkey Run through City Creek Canyon??? (It is a 6k)

Kelli, I have not run the Cold Turkey Run but I hear it is very popular and fills up very FAST and they have a cool t-shirt. The running group has done a morning run for the past few years if you are interested.

Running group equals FREE, so that is good. We need to have you design us a nice turkey shirt!

It was great to run and chat with you this morning. I think I love your pace, I am sticking with you!! As Dean said, you KNOW what you are doing!!
