Running Accomplishments:

This blog is intended for my wife, Alison, to log how much she runs. Currently I (Desi) enjoy running the distance between my house and the mailbox. I get more excited about my wife's running than she does. My wife completed the Top of the Mountain marathon in Logan, Utah(2007) with the personal best time of 3:33 her first marathon.

  Ali  has some awesome friends to run with that continue to keep her on the run and very motivated most of the time.

 


Short-Term Running Goals:

Ali's Goals:

Work on getting stronger in shorter distance races.


Long-Term Running Goals:

Ali : Try keep fit and running the rest of my life.  Help those around me appreciate the importance of staying fit and healthy.

Maybe get into the couple running thing with my wife, but I don't know!( motivation is lacking)

Personal:

We have 4 children (2 girls, and 2 boys). I am very supportive of my wife and her running.   I do all the bragging for her. Played football at BYU, but I never have had the long distance threshold.  I blame that on my size.   We met at a local dance club while attending college. We have been married for 11 wonderful years.

Congratulations! I have been waiting to hear, and I even went to the events website and they don't have results up yet. Great job on your win. I want more details!

Thanks! I'm the one that's impressed now, though... you just won a marathon!? That's so amazing. Hopefully when I start running marathons I can be as fast as you! Great job on your race and good luck in your training!
