Running Accomplishments:

I have run five marathons (fastest being 3:58) and 4 half marathons (fastest being 1:45).  Those are the only races I have ever done, but I love it and I plan on trying to keep it up for as long as possible.  I want to run every race better than the one before.

Short-Term Running Goals:

 

Run St. George Marathon

Qualify for Boston!

Personal:

I am a teacher, wife, and mother of two little girls so needless to say...I am a little busy.  I love running with my friends, not only for the workout, but for the social aspect as well.  I just hope I can keep getting faster all the time!

What a great race!  I did my personal best 1/2 time and should have pushed a little harder.  I didn't want to bonk toward the end but felt great the entire time.  Even on that monstrous hill the last mile.  I am happy with my splits.  They are as follows...

7:43, 7:44, 7:25, 7:45, 7:36, 7:41, 7:49, 7:44, 8:05, 8:36, 7:36, 7:49, 8:21, 6:41

The 8:05 or 8:36 were up a hill and I was losing energy fast.  I took a shot block toward the top and was good to go for the last few miles.  Onward to the marathon!
