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.

I did my grit training session this morning at 5:30, that completes my 2nd week, 4 to go. It is kicking my butt, but the trainer is nice and positive, not at all like the military style boot camp, which I would never do again.

I went up to Park City with Ardie and Jeff and did some cross country skiing and had lunch at Squatters. It was so nice to see blue skys!

I did a 5K on the TM in the cardio cinema ( a great way to ease the pain of the dreaded TM) I love the dark room and big screen.  My time was 32:40, which is really good for me.  My standard 5K time is 33:00, no matter what the course is, I usually end up with a 33 min. time.   Yay!   Less than 4 weeks until my half marathon, I think things are going well.  Sat. I will be running 9 miles with the WRC.

8 miles on the JRP with Ardie and the WRC!  It was tough, 11 degrees.  We did see a bald eagle.  My first half marathon of the year is in 3 weeks.  I should be okay.
