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

Met the group at the SJ library for the early miles.  I got there a little early and started running.  Kris was there and was running too.  Then Carissa came and we started out and half way down the street we saw Michelle coming to we headed back and met her and Cheris.  We ran down the road to the end then turned around and ran back but turned east on the street before the Library and headed down to 13th west.  Then we turned around and headed back to the library.  It was perfect running weather.  If I had stayed for the later mile I would have taken off  all my warm stuff.

I went early for the early miles at running group and ran until Michelle got there, then we started off and saw Cheris coming so we went back.  We ran the loop through the subdivision and then ran on the parkway trail.  It was a good run.

After work and a short nap I used the spin bike and then did my leg weight/stomach exercises along with my pushups.  I need to use the spin bike alot until it is warm enough to ride outside because I signed up for the Goldilocks 60 mile bike ride.

I met the group at Bingham for the run.  I started out early and they caught me by the time I got to 9800 south.  About 5 minutes later Kris Bullock and Debbie Kroll caught up and passed me.  I kept it slow and steady and ran up 98th, over Bangerter and past the Glenmore Golf Course.  Then I kept going on Sky Drive down the hill and up the other side and then kept going past the park, around the park and then up Sky Park Drive and then I eventually found Sky Drive again and headed back.  When I had 3 miles to go Leslie called and said she would run 3 more miles with me when I got back.  I got back to Bingham just behind Kris and Debbie and a minute later Leslie pulled in.  She and I ran south to 114th and back.  I was quite tired but glad I made 11 miles.
