Long-Term Running Goals:

Keep running as a priority in my life.  I initially started running because I told myself "there are no fat runners" (not meaning to offend anyone--just needed something to help me get fit after 4 babies!)  Then I started discovering not only the health benefits of running but the psychological benefits!  These were the icing on the cake!  Running makes me happy, it makes me funner, it makes me feel so much better about myself, etc., etc..  There are way too many benefits to ever give up!  I may never win a race, but I am happy and make life better for my family because of this little piece of time I take for myself!

Personal:

I've been married for 18 years and have 4 fabulously cute boys (15, 12, 10, 6).  I love running, reading, volleyball, scuba diving, gardening, cooking, and hanging out with my family.

41 minutes on the elliptical.  Does anyone know how to convert this to running miles?  The elliptical keeps track of miles, but it's very different from actual running.

A miracle happened today!  I got into the Moab Half Marathon!!!!!! Yippee!!!! It truly was the flukiest miracle ever! Growing up in Moab paid off!

THE WEATHER IS SO BEAUTIFUL TODAY I CAN HARDLY STAND IT! SPRING IS COMING. . .

Pounded out the miles today!  Had to take off my jacket for the first time this winter!  Then had to take off the warm pants after 7 miles and just run in leggings.  What a nice change!
