Personal:

I've always been more a dancer than a Runner, but i've ALWAYS been into working out and staying active. I ran the 1 mile in track in Highschool ( i think my fastes mile was right around 7 mins.) but never in my life have I ran longer than one mile until 2009. I am a Zumba instructor and I run in the Spring/Summer. I love running but I do not enjoy running on the TM or outside in the cold, so I guess you could say I'm a Fair weather runner.

I am Happily Married to my hottie husband Moses and have 5 cutie kiddos - Moses Jr. (15), Andre (11), Dallas (10), Rhoman (7) and Scotlyn (3) -

I had a GREAT run with Lily and Merri early this fine morning! Merri was kind-of quiet -- I wonder if she was still shocked from the Zumba Session last night! Lily took off for some more after Merri and I dropped off - you go energizer bunny!!

I think my kids and I are going to do Racing Cane on Sept.19. We are all getting pumped for that! Andre can't stop talking about it - he asks me everyday if I've got him signed up yet.

Ugh! I really sucked today - no workout!  The boys had a football game at 8:00 AM, then I had my first hair client at 9:30 AM and then I ended up doing hair ALL day until 8:30 PM. I was going to run but I was just too worn out!

I only did 4 miles this week - that is not good! I'll be better next week. ☺ 

The kids and I are registered for Racing Cane on Saturday. Looking forward to that.

Ran 5 miles this morning with Merri. I ran more this morning then I did all last week so I'm starting off a lot better than last week already.

I felt good this morning - seemed like it went pretty fast - always goes faster with good conversation! I think our pace was right around 8 mins.

Merri-Merri and I almost met our maker this morning - Seriously! This dude was not even looking and just about took us out!

A marvelous 5 miles this morning (besides the near hit!)

I'm soooo excited for Racing Cane tomorrow morning - doing a race with my kids- its going to be great! I don't feel too extremely prepared so I hope I do okay. I haven't been running as much lately. We'll see how it goes.  Ta ta for now.

Racing Cane today with my kids and it was GREAT! It was so fun to go to the event with my kids and then watch them cross the finish line too. What a fun morning! Not to mention I took first place in my division -woo hoo!- and 4th overall. And I finally had a sub 7 pace. My avg pace was 6:54. That made me feel really good!

My 3 oldest boys ran a 3k and they all came in together (4th, 5th, 6th in their age group) and had about 7:10 avg pace. They did awesome. Rhoman did a 1k and got 3rd place in his age group. I'm so proud of them.

Such a good memory for our whole family.

PS -- if i knew how to upload pics on this dang thing i would....

5 miles with Merri-Merri. I woke up really tired from a crappy nights sleep and only wanted to run like 1 or 2 but with a little push from Merri i got into my groove. COLD this morning too - numb hands again! First frost tomorrow morning the weather report is saying... guess its bye bye to Summer. But I am excited for Fall. ( just feeling bad for our poor tomato plants)

8 miles this morning in 1 hour 4 mins. Exactly a 8 min pace. ( so Merri says! It felt much slower this morning. My legs just didn't want to move!)

Wow its been quite the past 12 hours - I taught Zumba last night 8-9 pm. Got up at 6:00 and ran 8 miles w/ Merri-Merri. And then I just did another Zumba/Turbo class at Golds from 9-10 this morning. I'm going to sleep good tonight!

I've got my sisters kids here for the day and they're staying over night. So 8 kids to entertain today. I'm thinking a trip to the park is in the near future - I need to get all of these kids out of the house! We are all going to the Spanish Fork/Salem game tonight. GO S.F. !!!!!

5 Miles this morning with Merri-Merri - (I'm writing this on Saturday- this is the only time I ran this week. So to make a long story short - I was a sucky blogger and a sucky runner this week!) ☺☺☺ -- had to put some extra smiles for that - just because!
