Personal:

Married.  Stay at home mom.  My husband and I have 2 daughters and 4 sons.  And I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

With a seemingly impossible long-term goal of running a sub 3 hour marathon, the following scriptures give me hope:

In your patience possess ye your souls. Luke 21:19

But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing. James 1:4

But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it. Romans 8:25

Submit cheerfully and with patience to all the will of the Lord.         Mosiah 24:15

And Ezra teaches that discipline and patience are born of disappointment.

Happy New Year's Eve!!  I'm so glad that Amber was able to meet up with me this morning.  I thought that there was a good chance I'd be running solo.  We did a loop in S.F. and though the roads were pretty bad at times, conversation helped the miles go quickly.  We saw Ali when we were headed toward Amber's.  She was running home from the gym and joined us for a bit, but all of us were close to the end of our workout so she turned back onto Canyon to head for home.  I was pleasantly surprised that the temp this morning wasn't worse.  The next two days are suppose to be pretty cold and the thought of running in it makes me cringe.  One cold winter month down!  A good two more to go  :(

Time 1:20

I am (eight weeks) pregnant!  I'm feeling pretty good for the most part.  Due date is August 14.  Perhaps that will change at my first appointment, at the end of January, when I have my first ultra-sound and they measure everything.  Although I was pretty sure that I was pregnant a couple weeks ago, I didn't take a pregnancy test until Christmas Eve.  Phillip found out Christmas day.  We are pretty excited.

Congratulations on the pregnancy!! You have a beautiful family.

I have enjoyed (and will continue to enjoy) reading your workouts and hope to be as fast as you someday. Thanks for the inspiration!

Shauna, thanks! I will be the one needing inspiration in the weeks that come. Happy running!
