Running Accomplishments:

I've been running for the past 25 years.  I ran my first marathon at age 50 and have run 3 since then.  I run 5K's, 10K's and half-marathons.   I ran the Ogden Marathon in 2006 and finished in 4:35.  I won Thrid Place in my age group.

Three of my daughters and I ran the Ogden Half Marathon.  They did great and I was glad to just finish.  I ran the Riverton 1/2 marathon the end of March and pulled my hamstring and then got bursitis so I wasn't able to train as much as I wanted to.

I have slowed down a lot the past 10 years so my goal now is to keep running slow and steady until I die.  I also ride bikes and am as fast as my daughters.

We have now switched from Marathons to 1/2 marathons and Triathlons.  Last year Leslie and I did the Desert Sharks Triathlon and Daybreak.  I won first in my age group in both because there are not many people in my age group.

2010  Riverton Half Marathon 3rd in age group

Daybreak Triahtlon 2010 1st in age group

South Jordan Half Marathon 2010 1st in my age group

Riverton 10K 2010 1st in my age group

Vikingman Triathlon September 10 2010  Won 1st in my age because I was the only one in my age group

March 2011 Riverton 1/2 Marathon 1st in my age group and there were actually 6 people in my age group.

 

 

Short-Term Running Goals:

My daughters and I are starting to train for Triathlons, but would still like to run 2 half-marathons and 5K's and 10K's 

2010

Riverton 1/2 Marathon  3rd in age

Long-Term Running Goals:

Personal:

I was finally able to run outside.  Duke and I did our usual 3 mile course.  I love running outside way better than any exercise you can do indoor.

I was off work so at 7am Duke and I went outside to run.  It was slippery and foggy so about slipping twice in the first 20 feet I decided not to run and came back in the house and did my arm weight exercises.  I am so tired of winter.

I am so happy.  It was finally less slippery and I was able to run 3 miles outside with Duke.  We had to run along the road in the bike lane because most of the side walks were still slippery.  I really love running outside and so does Duke.

 I ran on Monday this week since our group is not meeting and I did not have to be to work until 7am.  Duke and I did our usual 3 mile course.  After dinner I did my leg weight/stomach exercises along with pushups.

 Duke and I ran our usual 3 mile course.  It was not snowing and the roads were clear.  I started getting hot at the end.  If I had run another mile or two I would have had to take off my warm stuff.

I was off work today so after sleeping in and having breakfast I ran with Duke on our usual 3 mile course.  We were able to run on the sidewalk today because most of the snow has melted.
