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.

S.F. was a winter wonderland this morning. Temp was about freezing, so not too cold. It snowed the entire time. Amber and I collected snow flakes on our eyelashes. We ran on at least a couple inches of powder and although not a quick pace, at least it wasn't slick. It was pretty nice actually, not many people out on the roads yet. We did a loop from 8th East toward the old highway, past the movie theater and then Macey's, a few blocks west of main, back on 3rd South, a loop around Scenic (to drop off Amber) and then home.

I continue to brace myself for a morning where I meet my limit in conditions that I'm unwilling to run in. January is the worse winter month, hopefully I can get through it. So far, so good. Thanks Amber for such a great run!

Sorry I chickened out this morning. I looked out and saw how much snow had fallen and how much it was snowing and said Naw! Desi had to go up to Salt Lake this morning to teach a class. He wanted me home by six. I figured that I wouldn't be able to get that far in the snow. Way to get out in the snow.

I am yet to find those conditions in over 23 years of running, including the first 9 in Moscow. It would probably have to be a tornado.

Sasha, I don't know if it's within me to be a runner in Moscow.

I'm convinced that you're not human. Tell me the truth now...
