Goal Type:

Marathon Finish

Running Accomplishments:

I have run 5K throughout my life.  I just ran the Colder Boulder in 25:33 which is a PR for me.

I ran two half marathons this past summer and my fastest time was around 2:09:? (My chip had issues and I was given a gun time but not a chip time, but I know I finished under 2:10:00)

Short-Term Running Goals:

I want to run a marathon during the summer of 2010.

Long-Term Running Goals:

Keep running for fitness and fun.  I would like to improve my pace to comfortably average 30 seconds faster then I run now.

Personal:

I am married and have three children.  I enjoy friends, piano, singing, crafting, and organizing/cleaning my home.

The sun was up earlier today, when I turned the corner by my house, there was glaring sunshine.  It was nice to not feel like it was so early.  However, there was a lot of wind today.  Running uphill into the wind is not a fun thing to do.  Once again, I am glad I fought off the stay in bed demons and got my run finished.  I have a busy day of preparations for a church Relief Society activity tonight on gardening, piano lessons, laundry, and kids.

It was a windy morning. Good job getting out. You're very consistent.

Were you wearing red today? I was coming up Cresthill Lane, south of University, and I could see a runner going up Cresthill on the other side of University. It was about 6:35, so I wondered if it was you, but the runner was too far away for me to tell.

Good luck with your busy day. I'm sorry I can't come to Relief Society tonight.

Have a good day. Hopefully you get some rest in the business of the day!

No, I was not wearing red but I did pass the red shirted runner twice this morning. I think he did the same route I did but backwards. I have never seen him out before.
