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

I rode my bike to Leslie's and then she, Chrissy and I ran.  I took a longer course on my bike so that I could get more miles.  While we were running we saw Lisa Dudley and her daughter running so we stopped and talked to them.  A little while later we saw my son-in-law Glen's brother running so we stopped and talked to him for a minute.  It was a good run and I didn't get too tired because we stopped twice and visited people.  Now I am getting ready for my family to come to a BBQ at my house.

I did not run this morning because I have a large blister on my big toe.  After work and a short nap I rode my bike.  I went from my house east to 13th west and then south to 144th and then west to redwood and then north to 114th.  It was a good ride.

I had to be to my grandsons baptism in Tooele at 8:30 am so I did not run.  After we got back I took a short nap and then weeded for an hour and a half.  Then I went on a bike ride.  I rode east from my house to 13th west and then south to 126th and then west to 3600 west.  Then I went to the district to pick up my son who rode his bike to work.  We then rode out to 114th and then east past redwood and home.  It was a good ride.
