Personal:

I started running at age 40 (14 years ago!)  I am married to Harold, he is a super supportive husband and we enjoy running and biking the trails along the Wasatch Front together. Between us we have 7 children and 9 grandchildren.  I am really having fun trying new races in scenic parts of Utah, I am a newbie in the ultrarunning world, I am slow, but love everything about it!  I have a lot to learn,but I am enjoying the journey.

Ardie and I ran with the WRC and I did 7 miles, was planning on 8 but after my fall last week things didn't go as planned. I am looking at revising my 2013 running schedule, do a little scaling back.
