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.

You are NO wimp! The snow shoeing sounds like a tough work out :) so what is muscle up?

NO KIDDING!!!! U hear ya, it is amazing how fast the body loses it. BUT, it is also amazing how fast it regains it!!

I was at the dentist today (Highland and 70th South) and thought of you. I drove to my mom's after and I think it would be just nuts to run anywhere around there! So many cars! BUT, one day I want to come run Highland drive below Brighton, up that monster hill!!!

Marion, Muscle-Up is a strength training class. I usually go twice a week.

Kelli, so your dad is a dentist right? Is he Dr. Liddle by any chance? I have done that hill....once. Yuck.

I have been baking like a wild woman trying to perfect a few recipes and have hit my highest weight. I am so discusted with myself! I need to get focused. Tomorrow is a new day!!!

Do you know Dr Liddle????

Yes, that is my dad.

OH---and I have been baking mostly healthy recipes. Maybe we need to share, then we can have half healthy and half tasty!!! Well, some of the healthy ones have been tasty, but not all.

YES!!!!!! He used to be my dentist! I loved his wacky sense of humor!!!!! What a fun dad!

From leslie peterson on Wed, Feb 03, 2010 at 18:19:31 from 174.52.158.81

Oh, and I am making very healthy foods, I just eat enough for me and a small army!

We will have to share our recipes.

He has a very DRY sense of humor. He is an odd duck. He needs to retire! ;o)
