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.

Memorial Day 5k  20:15

Spanish Fork Half (2004)  1:42

Mesa Falls Marathon  3:25


  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.

Went out and ran by myself this morning in the SF wind. I am getting anxious for everyone else to heal and get back out on the road. Its driving me crazy not having anyone to run with.

AVe pace 8:19 ( I feel like I 'm slowing down. PRobably because I'm not running as many miles.)

Yoga today!

Ali, I'll be doing an 18 miler (on my own) at 2am this coming Monday the 27th. :) Want to join me for part or all of it? It's likely I'll average a 10:25 pace. (tempting, I know)
