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 had a great run this morning.  I wish I had brought shot blocs and water, I would have kept going but I was hungry and thirsty. I think today I am going to go buy myself a new fuel belt. I have never had one I have really liked, but I think I will try again

Merry Christmas everyone!!!!!!  I hope you all enjoy this time with your families!!!!

Merry Christmas!!!  I got a fuel belt for myself yesterday and a case of shot blocks, and Harold got me a new Ipod for Christmas so I am all decked out for some great long runs this winter!

I am waiting for my children to come for brunch and then to go to my step kids house for dinner!  I wish you all a wonderful day with your families. Thanks for the friendship, you all have become such great friends.

I got up this morning to run, got all dressed up in my winter gear and yaxtracks and went to the park with Odee, I was the first person to walk into the park, virgin snow, no tracks, I was wading in snow up to my knees, took one loop around the park and said FORGET IT!  Went home and have much munching on treats and lounging all day long!  I want these holidays over, so I can get back on track!!

Tomorrow I am going to the oval with Maurine and Gary and shooting for 15 miles!  Send your positive vibes my way, I am predicting great pain on the hard surface for these tender feet of mine!  I told Maurine to bring bribes of treats and BIG WHIP!

Ran the Olympic Oval with Maurine and Gary, it was great!  It beat the outdoors all to heck today.  The plan was 15, but in my heart I knew if I did 13 I would be happy, so at 13.50 I finished.  We went to IHOP and had fun talking about all our running plans for 2009.

Harold and I went and saw Marley and Me.  It was so cute!
