| Lifted for legs Spin I must not have been meant to run today, everything that could go wrong did today. It all started out ok I even got to the gym right on time, but I soon discovered that I was missing my head phones, heart rate monitor and other needed "supplies". So I headed home...my 6 mile run would now be 4 but I was ok with that. As I drove in my drive way I noticed my daughters car was still park right were it was when I left for the gym...school had started 10 minutes ago! We then had a nice talk about being on time even if Seminary is you first class. This is going to be a never ending battle I am sure! Well there went my run!

| I had so much fun at this race! Teena, Smooth and Larry are the best traveling buddies ever! The problem was I kept forgetting I was running too. In fact I threw away my bib number and had to fish it out of the garbage last minute. I was so exited to see how Doone did I could hardly handle it. We meet up with Ross, Leslie, Doone and Rhett for dinner Friday night. It was so fun talking about the race the next day and planning how we would run it. When I started doing the math I found out I was going to have to run this race at close to a pr pace so that I could stay ahead of Doone and see her come in. If I ran it a slow long run pace she would pass me. Then right before Teena and I went to bed Teena looked up the winning time in my age group last year. It was 1:55:XX I thought I had a 1:53 in me, so I thought cool I could walk away with hardware! Larry drove me to the start of the race. There I met up with Rhett and Leslie and waited for Teena to pass. She looked so cute...I am not sure how she could look that cute after 13.1 hard miles! Anyway then we started I think I lined up too close to the start and the first few miles were a little fast but they felt good. Three miles in I caught up to what I thought was my main competition, I asked her age (yes I am that competitive!) she said she was 42 and when I heard she was not in my age group I let her go ahead of me. I felt like I pushed fairly hard during this race but I am not sore today at all so I guess I could have pushed more. After the race I waited for Doone to come across the finish line. I was so proud of her, even though she didn't BQ she came across with a huge smile on her face. What a classy lady!
This course seemed hard and I am still not sure how I will do at St. George. I think I have got some speed back after the hammy injury but I still feel like I was in much better shape last year. I guess time will tell. Splits: 8:00, 8:11, 8:36, 8:35, 8:33, 8:25, 8:28, 9:14, 9:00, 8:43, 8:42, 8:55, 8:51 I feel like I mentally broke down at the end I hope I can hold it together better in a month!

| Trail miles with Kim and Cristy in the mountains 8000 feet is a lot harder to run at. We thought of the runners doing the Wasatch 100 at this elevation, and gained a whole new level of respect for them! | | Add Comment |

I wanted to do 20 miles but with 2 days of no sleep, camping food (and too much of it) and still being at 8000 feet I opted to run it on Monday. Instead I did this with my family:

After seeing this story on the news last night, http://www.ksl.com/index.php?nid=148&sid=12398879 my mom called and tried to talk me out of my run today. I told her that I would be extra careful but I needed to run. I waited and ran later in the day making my run hotter but I did feel safer with all the other runners out there. It is so sad that as female runners we have to take risks just to do what we love so much. Here are the splits I felt really great until mile 15 and then the wheels started to come off. These are the hardest miles of this run they are all gradual up hill miles and I just could get my legs to move. Mile 19 I had to stop twice to fix my sock and I walked the big hill up to mile 20. Splits: 9:15, 8:59, 8:48, 8:37, 8:47, 8:50, 9:04, 8:43, 8:53, 9:05, 8:59, 9:09, 9:18, 9:13, 9:29, 8:59, 9:21, 9:44, 10:31, 13:18 Lunch time - 3 hot slow miles with Daughter-in-law and Clark in the jog stroller

Four easy miles with Katlyn, I didn't even take my watch.
I have found a race in Japan that I want to run, (i think) my problem is there is not a info page in English. Could anyone translate this for me? http://www.furusato.gr.jp/ I need to know if there is a half marathon as well as full, and how much it will cost. Really I need to know so much but that is a start.

| I am not dead, I have just been spending as much time as I could with James before he went to Japan. I just drove him to the airport. It was harder than I thought but I held it together. I will post more later now I have to catch up on everything I neglected for the past week! | | Comments(8) |
