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 met the group at Parkway Palisades.  We ran the hills, the one mile repeat, the two mile, some hill sprints, a tempo run.  We had it all.  It was fun being with everyone.  Then later I went to pick up my van, so I walked/ran back to Riverton Chevy.  By the end I was running pretty well, had some in the 6 minute splits (just for 30 seconds or so).  Felt pretty good about that run.

Nice run!! My legs definately couldn't take a 6 minute split after those hills you put us through this morning. I'm so glad you're feeling better and ready to push us all!!

Thanks, Rachel, you did great on those hills. I predict a strong Ogden marathon.

So happy I slept in! Hills are not in me right now, at least hard, push with all you can, over and over hills!!!

Great job today, and every day. I hope you are feeling much better and HOPE to drag my tired fanny out of bed for Thursday.

Cheryl,

I'm glad you were able to do the hills and not feel too sick.

Kelli--we missed you again, but I understand about needing sleep. Thanks for your nice comments. You will tear up Ogden.

Nancy--it was good to see you and Duke this morning. I am feeling better, hopefully it will last.
