Running Accomplishments:

I started running in September 2007 - 4 months after baby #8 was born.  Since then I have finished two 5Ks, three 10Ks, three half-marathons, and I completed my first Marathon with at time of 4:48- the Phoenix Rock-N-Roll - Jan 2009!  Marathon #2 showed GREAT improvement - the Saint George Marathon 2009 with a time of 4:10 - YEAH!!!!

Short-Term Running Goals:

I want to run more marathons, finish injury-free, go dancing afterwards, and mostly have a LOT of FUN!!!

Long-Term Running Goals:

Keep running!!!  Someday I want to be able to consider myself as something other than a beginner.  :D

Personal:

I am happily married, have 8 children, and am madly in love with my awesome husband!!!  Besides running, I love performing on stage, and have recently become re-involved in the theater, after a LONG break to have children.  Last summer I did my first show as a PAID professional actress!  I teach piano and voice lessons, and homeschool my kids.  Life is grand!

I needed sleep SO BADLY this morning!  I think I've developed a nice sinus infection due to allergies.  So I forced myself to stay in bed, then went to the gym this afternoon and ran 3 miles under 30 minutes on the treadmill.  Good enough!

I got up out of bed earlier today, so I ran 5 miles in 47:24.  Then this evening we went to the lake and I swam a little longer than I usually do, and then did the 15 mile loop.  Ben and I celebrated by going out to Sonic for Hamburgers, chili dogs, omion rings, and a big peanut butter cup shake.  Yummy!

My calve was a little sore today, so I did P90X Cardio X this morning, and tried to do a little running this afternoon on the treadmill.  I eneded up doing a half mile walk, a mile run, and a half mile walk.  I don't want to risk injury with the marathon in only a few days.  :D

Ben and I did our long run this morning with some friends.  I took it pretty easy, running with the group most of the way, then breaking off for some speedwork at the end.  I ran the nine miles in one hour, thirty minutes.  This afternoon I did part of the P90X cardio routine before I had to leave for "Aida."  After the show, Ben and I took some cast members on a midnight hike and watched the stars until 3:30 in the morning.  Good times!
