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 ;)

Great run with Mandy on the trails in St George.  We got busted by some golfers for running on the cart trails :(  We were just following some other runners instructions that were a bid misguided.  Anyway- we made it to the end of the Painters 1/2.  That was weird to run it.  The ghost of Jon was there telling me to RUN FASTER!!!  Mandy is quite the speed deamon.  If she ever decided to take this running stuff seriously, WATCH OUT!!!

Yes, you read that right- 17.2 miles!  THANK YOU LUZ!!!!!  Our average was12:12, which is what I was hoping for.  Anything in the the low 12's would have been GREAT!!  It took us 3:30 (the time is from Luz's garmin- her's pauses when we do- mine does not :( ).  Last night I texted Luz to see if she wanted some SLOW company for our 17 miler today.  Fortunately for me she said YES!!!  Luz is the most amazing person EVER!!!  We met at Willie's Pit Stop in  Provo and ran up the canyon just a 1/2 mile past Vivian park for our seventeen out and back.  That last 1/2 mile up the south fork was TOUGH!!!  I took shock blocks and 2 gu's and 2 tylenol.  I drank a ton of water and am planning on a ice bath as soon as I am not freezing anymore.  I really don't want an ice bath, but I am quite sure I need to take one if I am going to make this an injury free training session.  My left calf started to bug on the way back down :(   I am going to stretch it and may go see Dr Brady if it so much as twinges.  We saw JonA on the trail :)  FUN to see friends!

These are my splits, but they include stops.  12:41, 13:05, 12:40, 13:17, 13:12, 12:39, 12:40, 13:28, 12:29, 12:25, 10:55, 11:27, 12:39, 12:25, 11:55, 11:51, 11:22,
