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.

Met the chicks at 5:30 and it was raining, so walked over to the indoor track and did about 3 miles. 

My heels are feeling better, but I am going to try  and get into a podiatrist and get it checked over, ASAP! 

Have a great day everyone!

It's so nice to see you with your little chickadees again! I'm glad your fundraiser turned out so well! Sorry we weren't all able to be there to support you and your family! Good luck on the continued training!

OK - go reread all my posts and quit nagging me! Now it is your turn to email me about the party!

Striders is saving me a spot for the OV50. John made it to about 35 and his knee was swollen too bad, so he DNF'd on the Wasatch 100.

Great run! I am very glad to see you are getting into the Doc :) Keep up all of the icing and stretching to keep PF at bay. :D
