Perfect my diet to run better, stonger and faster!
Long-Term Running Goals:
Run 3:15 marathon.
Personal:
I have 4 kids, 2 boys and 2 girls. 11, 9, 6 and 2. I have been married to my guy for 13 years. He is great and so supportive of my running life. He is also very active, mostly weight training and he has run 2 half marathons as well. He is very fast without training too hard. 1:28 Half Marathon!!! I am working on being able to keep up with him. Someday when are kids are older we look forward to training together.
Dang it was windy today. I used my husbands ipod because mine is broken and it was interesting. His music went from Eminem to Techno to Josh Groban to Classical. Strange combinations.
Ya know, with all of my music free runs getting ready for St George, I have noticed that I do not really pay attention to the music so much anymore. BUT, when the going gets rough, I switch through songs like a crazy woman to find one to motivate me!!!
Britta, that is so funny because I have so been there. Well, kind of: Ryan's ipod if stacked full of Kenny Chesney (sp?), Lionel Richie, and The Mormon Tabernacle Choir.
Oh my. If he is wearing a shirt, I think there is absolutely NO HOPE!!!! Hey, I have a quote for you to tell Ryan: Cross-country. Finally a good use for golf courses.
Seriously, we ran on a golf course once and i stepped on those darn triangular looking thingies and twisted my ankle. Golf courses are dangerous places!
I think you are right ... he past the point of no return a long time ago. (The t-shirt is from the Tina Turner/Lionel Richie concert 7 or so years ago ... he still wears it!! He had to see Lionel, we didn't even stay for Tina.)
I love to golf though!! Only problem is that I have added a few strokes to my game since I started running. Need to get out more often I guess!! :)
I have a hard time with road trips because my husband has to bring ALL the Neil Diamond CD's. I don't mind Neil, just don't like to listen to him for 8 hours!!!
I don't think I have ever even heard a Lionel Richie song.
Billy Joel---there ya go! Why couldn't I think of that? Tired maybe?
I HAVE NOT seen Mamma Mia. We go to the movies at least 3 times a month, but Scott would not go to that one so I missed it. I will have to rent it. I heard it was really good! I was raised on ABBA and Alabama and The Oak Ridge Boys. Love them all---but that makes me cool, not old!
Oh, I was just waiting for your reply so that I could say, "Why do you stay up so late? I am going to bed!" You beat me to it. No fair, you beat me in everything!
I was just finishing some last thoughts on my YW lesson on Dating. That should be fun!
Since you are reading this tomorrow---hope you slept well!
Okay I have heard that song. The video...hillarious!
Oak Ridge boys and "Mormon Rap" is what we use to listen to on road trips as kids. Love the Oak Ridge boys, and I agree it makes us cool not old.
Teena, My husband Jon is 32, his dad use to bring Neil along while he was growing up so that is where he gets it from.
Kelli, We had the Dating lesson last week. The girls were so funny, I had to correct them several times that "No it is not okay to just live on LOVE, Marriage takes a lot more than just love."
Wow I got married at 19 and some of those girls are so close to 19. I must have been WAY more mature. Have fun!!!
Oh my goodness, that lesson was torture. I have this one YW that scares me (I secretly hope she does not show when I teach). She demanded I tell her why necking and petting were bad (after I had to describe to her what they were----painful!) She just kept saying she did not see what the problem was. I was so scared to read some of the quotes, but the other girls were so funny about it---they lightened it up a little.
I got married at 19, too. So I try to keep that quiet when I teach YW!!
That is so funny about the one girl. So, we have a member of our presidency that is actually like your girl. The president always has to make sure she never teaches without her or myself there, just in case we need to correct anything being taught. YIKES!!!
I love young womens the girls are great. Even the crazy ones!!!
We need to run to have a long discussion about YW's. I am getting burnt out and need some positive motivation! PLus, our ward has ISSUES like you would not believe! It is getting tiresome, but I want to stay becasue one of those YW is my child!!
This is sad but I THINK our stake is called the Rose Canyon Stake. Which are you in?
