Running Accomplishments:

Marathon PR St. George 2008 3:36

Ran Boston in April 2009 and had an absolute blast.

Half Marathon PR 1:35.

10k PR-46:20 (Obviously not a great short distance runner:)

 

Short-Term Running Goals:

I've gotten the running bug back and hope I can continue to enjoy it. I think for now, my short-term goal is to NOT burn myself out. I am pro at doing that. I have a half and full marathon that I am planning on racing in a few months. I hope to be trained well enough to PR in both, but if not...I will enjoy the ride.

Long-Term Running Goals:

Under 1:30 half

3:15 marathon

Married with children. 17,16,14,11 and 7. 3 boys, 2 girls. I have the best husband in the world!

That is the secret to life....finding balance! If you ever figure it out, please share!

We finished the SGM together in 2008. I ran 3:36:41. Hope to be there this year!

Keep up the good work!

If you ever need a SLOW running buddy at group, I'm sweeping the back - waiting for others to join me :)

Do you work fulltime? It is really hard to find a balance especially when you have to work. I have a lot harder time exercising after work.

Nancy, I'm not full time but I am waiting tables and it is exhausting at times. I am getting into my groove though and feeling like I might be able to figure it out. I ran a few days last week and ran last night and felt awesome. Gonna get out this afternoon again also. Thanks for the comments everyone:)

Balance with a job and 5 kids, NOT POSSIBLE!!! But I am so glad that you are alive!
