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!

A big workout at the track and the roads.  After a 3 mile slow warm-up, we did 4 800's; my times were 3:42, 3:36, 3:34, 3:28.  Then an almost two mile run.  The pace on that was 7:40.  Then about a 1.6 mile run, pace was 7:28.  Then two half miles in Prospector.  My times were 3:37 and 3:39.  It was  a great workout.

Thanks, Rachel. I think we all deserve something big for getting thru these tough workouts week after week.

Kelli--what's this you're saying? I'm always following you it seems like. You're the amazing one, running that fast on a bum foot. Thanks for sticking out the workout with me this morning (Thursday). That's what I tell myself, just complete the workout, that's what matters the most, don't worry too much about time.
