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

After work I did my leg weight, stomach exercises and 70 mens pushups.  After dinner Leslie and I went to go bike riding and my bike tire had a leak so we didn't go.

Met the BBK's at Bingham for the early miles.  We ran around the neighborhoods and I visited with Michelle M.  When we regrouped we ran down to Rustic Roads.  Leslie called me as we were taking off to tell me she was on her way.  When we got to Rustic Roads we started up the hill and after I got part way up I thought I saw Leslie coming so I went back to meet her.  It was actually Rachel so I ran up the hill and when I was almost to the top the group turned left so i went back down to find Leslie.  I found her towards the bottom so we decided to run back down and run along 2200 to see if the group came down.  We ran down 2200 to the equestrian park and didn't see the group so we ran back towards Bingham.  It was getting very cold, windy and snowy.  We ran back to the car and since I had to be to work at 7 we went home.  After dinner Leslie and I swam at Gene Fullmer fitness.  We swam for almost an hour.

I met the BBK's at Riverfront Park for the early miles.  We ran the Parkway Palisades loop and then went back to pick up the rest of the group.  We ran to Parkway Palisades and then up to 1300 West.  We ran up 1300 West to 105th south and then east to the South Jordan Cemetary.  At the cemetary we did a relay race but Debbie, Leslie and I just ran around the cemetary.  I had to leave at 6:15 to go to work.  It was a good run and I had fun.

Leslie and I went to our Triathlon class this morning.  Our teacher wasn't there so we swam for 45 minutes and then rode the spinning bikes for 40 minutes.  I was going to run when I got home but I was tired and changed my mind.  Tonight I have half my grandkids and kids coming for dinner and a Halloween Party.
