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.

 Odee and I did a nice easy trail run from Birch Hollow to the Overlook and back.  Finally we had perfect weather! I think the upper Millcreek Road opens July 1st and then we will have more options!

Tomorrow I head off to Misquite and St. George with my girls and mom, we are going to see Footloose at Tuachan and have massages and lounge by pool in Misquite, and of course play the penny slots with granny!!!  Woo hoo!

Did muscle up this morning and then decided to try something new. I went over to track at Brighton High and decided to take baby steps on some speed work.  I warmed up and then did one mile with an  AP of 8:53, I had to stop my garmin twice to catch my breath, but was super happy with that time.  I think I will do this more often it was really pretty fun!

Now it is off to St. George and Mesquite!  Be safe guys!!!  Wish me luck on the penny slots!!

Great trail run this morning.  Gary and Harold and I put in at Gaurdsman and ran the Crest to Desolation Lake and then down to the Mill D trail head.  Harold rode his bike all the way home and Gary and I drove up the canyon to get my car.  Perfect morning.
