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.

lower body work out at bootcamp

Hiked from Mill D to Desolation Lake with Kim. My legs were so trashed from bootcamp that my knees gave out 4 times on the trail, and I fell on my butt, it was a slow motion fall that didn't hurt, but I felt like a silly drunk that couldn't stay upright.

A new instructor at bootcamp, he was trying to impress the boss I think and about killed us. My arms will probably not work tomorrow.

I am off to do my run with Julie, I will probably come back and adjust my mileage.

My legs are still sore from yesterdays bootcamp and my 3 1/2 hour hike. And why is the scale not moving? oh, yeah, because I am consuming so many calories to keep up my energy, I don't know if I will ever find the right balance, but I am happy to feel strong and healthy.

I was afraid to go up in the mountains with questionable weather. I ran from my house to the Jordon River Parkway and met Julie and did 3 miles with her. Nice and overcast. I should put in another 9 this afternoon, but I doubt it will happen, lots to do today.
