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

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

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.

What are the chances that I'd trained for the last 16 weeks and then last minute had to fly out to Utah and was there for this "race" weekend.  I ran it on the Murdock trail.  And it ends up we are moving there!  It was a nice cloudy morning.  Felt pretty cool - compared to TX for sure.  I started my period the day before.  I hadn't slept well because of the stress of figuring out if we were taking a job in Utah and moving there.  And we had been house hunting for the previous 36 hours.  I also didn't eat dinner the night before, just nuts and chocolate covered pretzels.  Even with ALL THIS going on... I DID IT!  I ran my goal of an 8:30 pace!  I came in at 8:31 and was so happy!  Way to rock it Heather!
