Running Accomplishments:

I've just run for fun/to get exercise in the past, but recently (I think thanks to Amber Green) I have wanted to become more of a "runner" - with the healthy/active/goal oriented lifestlye.

Short-Term Running Goals:

I would like to run a 10 mile and a half marathon within the next two years.

Long-Term Running Goals:

I am training to run a 10 mile race this October (2015).

Personal:

I'm married to a wonderful man who will also be  my personal coach. We have 4 great kids ages 0-7years.  I love to dance and cook yummy, healhty meals/snacks/treats for my family.

Ran outside along Dixie.  Sun's not rising until close to 7am - pushes my runs back a bit on Saturday's, but hopefully gives me more rest.  Felt really good this run.  Tried harder to focus on enduring the run at a good pace instead of focusing too much on my speed.

8:20    8:25    8:13    7:51    7:51    8:06    7:45    7:36    Avg pace = 8:01

Miles 2-5 were on rolling hills.  The last two miles were flat.  I liked this run!  Felt good and accomplished at the end.

Woke up this morning so dizzy.  That's never happened before.  It kind of affected the way I was feeling to run but overall I was able to pull off a good run.

Today was such a good run! I'd say it felt easy. Not sure if it was just a good day or if my body is getting use to this pace and distance. Maybe a little of both? Loved it though and felt like I could have finished the 10 miles at 7:53.

Down to an 8:00. 8:00. 8:00. 7:53. 7:53. 7:47

Couldn't go running outside because we left early for the Atlanta temple.  I wasn't feeling well.  My lower right abdomen is bothering me.  I felt like my insides were shaking around.  At 5 miles I had to stop.

After taking two weeks off I hope I'm back in business! Pain issue still not resolved but I barely felt it during my run today so I'm taking that as hopefully an okay sign. I didn't push it since I took 2 weeks off but my run today felt great. I ran mostly between an 8:13 and 8:06 the last 4 miles. I'm going to try hard to listen to my body and not worry about speed. I just want to be able to run this 10 miler in less than 5 weeks!
