PR 3:14:17 St. George 2007 Long-Term Running Goals: Sub 3 hour marathon. 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. Favorite Blogs: |

Ran to the Bishop's storehouse; I passed Ali on the way. (She was headed home.) Hooked up with the S.F. group. My pace felt great today, compared to runs over the past week. Michelle kept an easy pace and I was able to catch up on the latest with her; I have missed running with friends! I'm glad that I decided to stay in S.F. The run seemed to go by so fast. Warmer temps have me excited and looking forward to spring time. :) I'm guessing that I ran about 9 miles this morning.

It was cold this morning...about 20'F, I think. Had a pretty bad cramp on my left side for the first few miles, so they ended up being really slow. Kept a slow pace most of the run; didn't feel like fighting the wind more than necessary.
Toward the end of my route there was a mile stretch that I'm pretty familiar with; I decided to pick it up a bit since I was warmed up. I wasn't uncomfortable...just putting in a quicker effort than what I typically do now. I ran it in 7:27 and it felt good. Seventeen weeks pregnant today.

Slept in a bit too long and got out the door late. Tried to keep a quicker pace but it wasn't happening. Not too terribly slow but nothing to write home about. This morning's route could have been a bit longer but I'll go conservative and call it 7 miles.

Ali called last night wondering if I wanted to run with her this morning. No need to wonder...I love running with buddies. It was good to get out with her. We kept a bit of a faster pace than I would have on my own. Good thing my body was up for it.
I ended up adding on a good bit around my neighborhood after splitting from Ali. I wanted to take advantage of how good I felt. Hopefully Friday will be another good day.

Nothing exciting about this morning's run. It felt a bit slower than yesterday. I ran by myself.

Shorter run for me with Ali this morning. I wasn't up for anything longer. Glad to have her company.

Ran by myself this morning. Exhausted, I couldn't help but fall asleep at 8:30pm last night. Woke up at 12:30am to use the toilet and didn't fall asleep again until 4am. Got to love insomnia...ugh. Finally caught a couple more hours before heading out the door (a bit late) for my run. It could have been longer than 8 miles, but I'll go conservative because my pace felt very slow. Good week for me overall. Glad it's the weekend!

Glad that I got my run in for the morning. Unfortunately, it wasn't a good one. For starters, the wind was pretty bad. Also, I felt pretty slow and out of it this morning. To top it off, I dealt with a side ache for the last 3 miles of my run. Ugh...hopefully the rest of the week will go better.

Not feeling too hot; the past two days have been rough. Guessing on the miles.

Ran with the S.F. group...I think it was about 9 miles. Cramps the first few miles and then the remainder of the run was okay.

I've hit a mid-pregnancy crisis...for a number of reasons.
I've been sick the last two days. Planning on running either tomorrow or Thursday. |

| Started out this morning's run feeling okay. Felt better from being sick. Unfortunately, by the end of my first mile, I started to camp pretty bad. Ended my run early because of it. Glad that I got out anyway.
My grandmother passed away yesterday. The funeral will be next Tuesday or Wednesday. It's probably best that she did...I just feel bad for my grandpa.
On a positive note, I'm glad that spring is here and that I actually can smell it in the air now and then. Motivation to get out the door. |

| My pace was a bit quicker than yesterday. I think it was more, but I'm going to call it 6 miles. Loved the temps!
