I started running in May of 2006 while losing 85 lbs after my youngest was born.  I have 6 fantastic kids, 3 girls and 3 boys and a wonderful husband.  My oldest is in college and my baby is in pre-school. (Six kids in 5 schools ;)

Slow 9 miles. 1:51:00/12:20 

I ran with Chrisann today.  It was her first 12.  She did GREAT! She is running the Moab 1/2 next month.  It's her first 1/2.  YIPEE!  She determined the pace today :)  It felt slow, but I was ok with that.  It is so fun to run with her :)  With two miles left, my right neuroma was bugging :(  Not too bad.  My right ITB did not bug during the run, but is a bit irritated right now.  I am going to stretch and then get into an ice bath :o    NOOOOOOOoooooooo!!!

Congratulations on 9 miles! You are a tough woman to take an ice bath. I tried it once with just a little ice, but I'm a big chicken in that respect.

I chickened out, watched a movie (all smelly) stretched and rolled and then took a hot shower followed up by a HOT bath :) Now I am eating a DELICIOUS smoothie.

I still think the best thing about the longer runs, is that I have NO appetite :)

Hi Marion! I went today to register for a half marathon in Ogden and it's all full. Are you running one this year? I have a desire to do one! If I sign up for a race it helps me train. Are you doing the Provo one?
