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 for early miles.  It was very snowy but beautiful.  There were four of us there.  It's a good thing I ran because I have really been pigging out lately.

Met the group at the church on 124th and 13th west.  There were 9 of us.  I didn't go to the early miles because I didn't have to work today and I knew I couldn't run that long without dying.  We ran north on 13th west past the church and then turned west and then south past another church and then out to 126th and back to 13th west and back past the church we started out at and then down the big hill past a few streets and then left to a park that had a trail.  We stopped and visited for a few minutes then Peggy, Mike and Debbie left to do a long run and the rest of us did laps around the park.  I think it was about a quarter of a mile around and we did it four times.  Then we ran out to the big hill and they were doing hill repeats, but I was so tired that I did the hill once and then went back to my car.  I got a very good workout.  Then I came home, cleaned the house, cleaned up and went shopping.  Then I took a long nap.  After dinner my husband and I went to the temple.

I used the elliptical for 15 minutes and the stationary bike for 15 minutes.  Then I cleaned the kitchen and did my leg weight/stomach exercises along with 50 mens pushups.  My shoulder is feeling better so now I need to work back up to 75 pushups.
