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.

Met up with Ali, Amber, Josse and Michelle this morning at 11am.  It was fun to run as a little pack of all sista's.  Had to run up and down Canyon in order to gather everyone; my fault completely.  Didn't give a great meeting point.  Sorry ladies.

Did a loop that dipped us down into the river bottoms.  Had a dog scare us; so glad Ali was prepared with a bit of pepper spray (although she didn't end up using it).  I am so skiddish since my dog bite last winter.  Michelle had an interesting experience with a car being a bit too interested in her pit stop.  My breakfast was not sitting well, especially the last few miles.  Yuck, I hate gut issues.  But overall, a good run.

Forgot to restart my watch at one point, so I'm guessing on my time.  I ran from my house and then back home for this mornings run, so 9 miles ought to be close.

Hey! I thought we had a deal that only the person taking a pit stop is able to comment on the pit stop on the blog! You're just jealous I am at one with nature ;)

It was really great to see you today, sorry you didn't feel so hot. Thems the breaks when your cooking something in the pot.

You are absolutely right...truly a developed talent! I should learn how to...on the fly in case of emergencies. A girl I use to run with would time herself and could pull it off in 10 seconds...total time. Now that's fast! Definitely an advantage during races.

Oh, and "pit stop" is a bit more vague than the acronym used by Sasha and Ted. A pit stop to...smell the roses, to tie your shoe, to chuck (not that we were running that fast, to re-do your pony tail...you get the idea. Many types of pit stops :)
