Personal:
David and I have been married since 2003, we've lived in AZ, UT (BYU, Health Science), WI and now we're back to our roots in CO. We have a little boy, Grant, who was born in 2009. I have never been a runner but like to pretend I am! I'm currently teaching aerobics in my church group and working on becoming a certified Personal Trainer through NASM. I'm pretty much obsessed with Full House, DQ Blizzards and Bajio. Sadly I don't have enough of these in my life! Favorite Blogs: |

| | Ran outside. man this was a tough run for some reason. I just never felt like I was in a good running groove. Slow and my legs hurt from trying to not slip on the ice! 1-10:10 (blah!) 2-9:40 3-9:45 4-9:25 |

| | Wow this was NOT a pretty run! I did it, but man alive it was a struggle. My lungs felt fine but my knee gave me some pain around mile 5-9 and the ball of my left foot as been bothering me for a few days, only when I run. It was SSOOOO icy out and I think that's why my body is hurting-I'm trying to not only run without dying but I'm trying to keep my balance and I'm using other muscles to keep me upright on the streets. It wasn't terribly cold out which was great but the ice is just so frustrating, I felt like I was walking half of the time! The sun is out now so hopefully it will continue to melt, although there is supposed to be more snow this weekend. Blah! 1-10:07 2-10:00 3-10:08 4-10:19 5-10:25 6-10:19 7-11:01 (yuck!) 8-10:57 (eek!) 9-10:24 I've been teaching aerobics twice a week and I'm loving it! I plan on riding my bike for 30 mins tonight. |

| | SNOW SNOW SNOW!!!! And boy howdy is there a lot of it! I ran 3 miles on the treadmill while David was home for lunch. I really want a gym membership. I love the gym atmosphere and think it would help me get a job as a PT if I knew the staff a little better. Off to watch The Office while Grant sleeps. Productive? Probably not:) |

| | Ran 5 miles on the tm while David was home for lunch. I'm thinking about asking them to put a fan in there. Dang it gets HOT! I had an enjoyable time running and tried varying my speeds. |

It felt like spring out today! I loved it! Still icy in a few spots but overall very nice roads. My left knee was kind of bothering me around mile 8-10 but it ended up being fine once I got home. I'm hoping that I can beat my marathon time but I'm realizing that I'm just not quite fast enough yet! 1-9:08 2-9:39 3-9:25 4-9:27 5-9:34 6-9:36 7-9:52 8-10:12 (bummer) 9-10:03 10-9:10

I'm headed to Utah tomorrow so I needed to do my long run today. My legs were super tight from aerobics yesterday (weakling I know!) so I was a little worried about running today, it actually felt great to run/stretch them. I went during lunch and this was such a fun run, great weather, great roads etc. I am feeling better about my times, still a LOT of room for improvement but I'm getting there! 1- 8:49 2-9:04 3-9:05 4-9:08 5-9:07 6-9:02 7-8:46 Off to make cupcakes for David's birthday tomorrow!!! mmmm.....

| | I've been in Utah for the last few days so today was my first day in like a week doing any sort of activity. It felt nice to be outside. I've been looking through my past years of running. I'm going to try to complete the SLC marathon in April and hopefully run it in under 4 hours. I think I can get my times to do that, I'm just worried about starting out too fast and needing to take bathroom breaks etc. Hopefully I can keep running injury free and really be able to focus on this goal. 1-9:14 2-9:18 3-8:36 |
