Personal:

Married with 2 lively boys. I love running and I love getting faster. Just trying to figure out how to balance life between being a mother, wife, part time nurse, and runner. :)

When I was in 6th grade I filled out a Getting to Know You sheet. Under nicknames I wrote, "My brothers call me Boo Legs, I think its because I run fast." (It really came from the movie, Strange Brew) And its been my family nickname ever since.

Race: Timp Half (13.1 Miles) 01:32:21

Slow miles	Fast miles	Total Distance
0.00	13.30	13.30

My goal for this race was between a 1:32-33. #nailedit.

I felt good. I love this course and this race. Beautiful weather, the sun isn't beating down yet because of an early start, and the course is great. I was pleased with how this turned out. I felt like I maintained a hard effort the whole time without getting out of control. I stayed in the mile I was in and took it a little bit at a time. I do better at holding it together in halfs than I do marathons.

Here are my splits- 6:54, 7:04, 6:56, 6:43, 6:41, 6:37, 6:47, 6:48, 7:24, 7:17, 7:12, 7:09, 7:01, 1:00. I managed to run an extra amount again. Apparently I'm a drunk runner. My watch has an average time of 6:57 but since I'm swervy McGee in races, my recorded race average time is 7:03 min/mi.

I really like this race. Here's hoping I'm on track for a 3:15 in St. George....
