| Member Since: Jun 16, 2008 Gender: Female Goal Type: Marathon Finish Running Accomplishments: I have been running for 3 years now. My parents are the ones who got me into running. My first year I ran Top of Utah and St. George Marathon. Both of which were just over 4 hrs. Last year at St. George I was on for a 3:50 but my body fell apart, I ended up waking up in an ambulance at mile 23. I sure hope this year is better.
Hobble Creek half 06- 1:47:19
Art city days 5k- 23:55 Short-Term Running Goals: I want a 3:45 this year at St. George- even though finishing would be much better than last year Long-Term Running Goals: I would like to get faster and one day do an Iron Man. Personal: I married the love of my life. I am currently in the Nursing program at SLCC, I will be graduating this December, Yeah!! When I am not at school I work for a sports medicine Dr as a medical assistant. My schedule is pretty crazy and I will have to be doing quite a few of my runs in the afternoon or at night after a long day of school and work. I am hoping that this blog will make me more accountable for my runs and help me to get them in.

Ran in Provo ( Memorial park on Center, up 5th west to temple, and down 9th). Not a great run. Legs for some reason were tired, and my left IT band ached a bit. Just glad to get it in. Did fewer miles today as my mom is trying to get over her planter fascitis. Fun stuff!! I am going to try and get in a few more later today.
Average pace 8:55 |

Not a great run, but got it done. Glad I was with a group or I know I would not have gone very far. Woke up not feeling great. Mile 1-3 weren't too bad but was on a downward slide from there. Nauseated, dizzy, and lightheaded the rest of the way. Took an electrolyte pill and some sport beans around mile 7- which helped some. Just didnt have it today. Forgot to turn my Garmin on after I stopped so not sure of pace- but it was pretty slow. |

Test this morning so couldn't run. Long day at work. Finally got to go out for a run at 7pm. It was still pretty hot. My husband and I ran down Provo canyon- starting at S. Fork. Felt pretty good today. My breathing was a little off. It was nice to run with my husband, he ran Wasatch Back this weekend and was still a little sore, so I had an easier time keeping up with him. Not used to the heat yet- just glad there is available water.

My class got out early today so I was able to go to the gym, before work. I hate running on a treadmill, but it was pretty hot outside. Wanted to quit at 2min. Run felt extremely hard. Legs and entire body was tired. (I was sick last night- after my run, nauseated, dizzy, and weak- even threw up once) I haven't felt great since Thursday, I sure hope I will get over whatever I have because it is wearing me out.
Question: Why is it that when there are 30 open treadmills at the gym, It always happens that a person gets on the treadmill right next to you? Plus they are always the ones that sound like an elephant is running next to you- plop, blop, plop..plop..plop. |

Easy 6.5 miles. Ran up 9th to Rock Canyon, from there got on LA Freeway ran south to Memorial park. Lots of hills especially the first 4 miles. Love running trails!! They are hard but so much better than pavement.
Rode my bike to work about 3 miles.
Got sick again about 1 1/2 after running. Lightheaded, dizzy, excessive sweating and vomiting. Not sure what it going on. Seems to be getting worse. |

We did a really hard 8.5 mile trail run today. Started at the soccer park in orem and ran up to the water tower. We headed E. into the canyon on the Bonneville shoreline and hooked onto a trail trail that goes up to the rock pile. All up hill- we continued our climb until we hooked onto trail 51. Finally after 6 mile we got to start heading down. Yeah!! Hamstrings felt tight on the way up. Started getting a side cramp coming down, slowed my pace some and really focused on my breathing. Trail took us down to dry canyon and then we headed back on the Bonneville shoreline. When we got back my Garmin only said 8.5 miles- it seemed like so much more!! Run time was around 1hr 40min. Which would normally be around 11-12 miles.
We decided to try and add on- My legs were pretty beat. I made it to 10 miles and I had, had enough and called it a day- even though I was planning on doing about 14 miles.
I did wear my heart rate monitor today. Didn't notice anything too weird. It did go up to about 185-190 up some of the really hard hills. Coming down was around 130's and average 160's.
Didn't get sick today!! Yeah! Came home and immediately drank some Gatorade and ate a banana and a cheese stick. Checked my Glucose before eating it was 88. |
