Personal:

I'm married with four children.  I run with a group called the Bingham Butt-Kickers, a really fun group of people that gets me out running early on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and sometimes Saturdays.   I recently found out that I've been running with poor form for many years, which has probably contributed to some nagging aches and pains I've had for years.  One of my big goals now is to be able to run with better form and to have running feel more effortless.  I hope this won't take too many years to achieve!

I was still in Deer Valley this morning.  I debated whether to run up there or just wait until I got home.  I finally made myself get out of bed, saying I would only go an easy 30 minutes.  But as it usually turns out, once you get going you want to keep going.  I ran around the Silver Lake area there, then went to the ski resort and ran up and down some of the trails.  That was a lot of fun.  When I had to stop after 45 minutes to go to breakfast, I was sad.  Should have gotten up earlier.  I hope to put in more miles later on.

PM--I did manage to run some more.  I ran a little on the treadmill, then took my dog and ran on the canal road.   We both got some good exercise.  Managed to put in 8 more miles.

I put in the most mileage ever this week.  Now granted, I counted biking miles for 10 miles of it, so if you subtract that, I was around 47 running miles for the week, which is where I've been the past several weeks.  Hope to get to 60 one of these weeks.

Great job Cheryl! Your Deer Valley run sounds fabulous! I'm sure you are glad you got out of bed for that!
