I am married with 3 lovely children 26, 18, &12and a dog named Koda and a cat named Blue.  Love to run and be outside.  I believe that if you think you can do it and you work hard enough any thing is possible.   Life flashes by in the blink of an eye, enjoy it while it last and remember there is a lot more to life than running. I coach high school swim and love it!

Met Rebecca and Desi early and warmed up 2.5 with the plan of doing 3x2 miles, did this on our flat 5 mile tempo loop. 1st one was 6:35 and 6:35 me and Rebecca were together and saying how we felt good and wanted to keep going but Desi was to far to yell at and let her know so we stopped and regrouped.  We had also picked up 2 guys Toni and Bill, we ran a half mile back and decided to do the next one 3 miles- 6:27, 6:36, 6:55 the last mile is all slightly uphill and was tough to keep under 7 but I did and was happy with my tempo efforts:)  Then we cooled down 3.2 good run.

HiiT same as last Tuesday

This half was by far the hardest half i have ever done with about 75% of it being uphill lots and lots of up and not a lot of water stops.  But the weather was beautiful and the wind was not a huge factor only noticed it in a couple of places with a slight breeze most of the race.  But sunny and warm almost to warm.  I didn't register for this race because I am at my max for race registrations this year but wanted to go run a good long run with McKenzie and Aubrey.  Met them early and ran 5.3 to warm up at an 8:30 avg, got Ericka along the way.  I really didn't know what to expect but I am really trying to work on racing without the garmin, while I had it on I only had my overall time on and I made myself not look at the splits.  Just ran off feel and I felt really good.  Ran most of the race with Mac and thought we pushed each other well.  I am really excited about this race because it was so hard and I felt like I raced well.
