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 walked Ardath and I around the Old Mill Pond a few times.  My body feels really quite good!  

I am  looking forward to my half marathon in Mesquite in 4 weeks, after doing a marathon and a 50K with in the last 3 weeks this will be a treat!  I am going to call and schedule my massage at the Casablanca today!

I got a free entry to the SG half marathon in the mail....wierd huh?  I think they were picking random names from the marathon.  I wasn't planning on doing it since I will be down that way in Nov. and then again in April, but we will see.  Did any of you get a free pass?

I did gentle yoga with the senior citizens today at the rec center, it was nice to ease back into life, but it was really too gentle for me.  Then I did 10 min. on the eliptical.  Baby steps.

Woke up to 4 inches of snow, went to the gym and did 25 min. on the eliptical machine and then for a short run with Odee. I feel like my recovery is going well.

I wish I could jump in the car and go to St. George and do the Snow Half this weekend with Smooth, it would be so much fun, but dang it all the crap I can't! I will just have to be patient and wait for the Mesquite Half in Nov.

got up at 5:30 to run with Odee.  I am thinking of signing up for Painters since I got a free coupon.  Who else is going?
