Friday, December 6 was our annual Christmas Luncheon, this year at Kathy English’s beautiful home.  You can’t miss the triplets who decided on polka-dot shirts that day.  We had a good laugh as we literally arrived at Kathy’s door at the same time! Great minds think alike! Loved this birthday morning run with my dear […]

I am so happy to be inside my warm cozy home.  Today it is snowing hard and tomorrow Sue B. and I are planning to run 10 miles.  It will actually be a walk/run but who cares, 10 miles is 10 miles.  Last week, when we started our 8.5 miler long run, my legs felt […]

I haven’t been running as much since the St. George Marathon on October 5 but in an effort to lose some pounds and especially a few inches from my waist, menopause fat (yuck!), I signed up with a personal trainer, Tyler.  Best part about it is that Joe, Nate and I go together.  I love […]

Last Saturday, Sue O., Cokie and I met @ 5:10, got driven by Joe to the top of Emigration Canyon before the turn to Little Mountain and started our 18 miler down the canyon.  What a treat to be able to run slightly downhill at the beginning of a long run and get a few […]

Today, along with Cokie and Donna, I ran/walked 16 miles as I am training for the St. George Marathon in October.  It was a beautiful morning, quickly warming up as we trudged along and I do mean trudged.  As we are getting older with accumulated injuries and tired from all the goings on in our […]

Last Saturday was the Ogden Marathon and Half-Marathon.  I was signed up for the Marathon but due to an injury and inadequate training, Joe and I did the half while Taylor ran the full marathon.  Two weeks before the marathon, we got an e-mail from race organizers responding to predictions of record heat on race […]

Last weekend, both Sue O. and I were in St. George and since we are both signed up for the Ogden Marathon on May 18, we planned to run a 14 miler on Saturday.  It was beautiful weather in St. George and would reach a high of about 78 that day.  Sue was feeling pretty […]

This has been such a hard running winter.  We’ve had so much snow and cold temperatures so it’s icy in the morning and when it’s dark, it’s especially treacherous!  One winter morning, a few years back, Cokie fell and broke her wrist on the ice.  There were several of us running and we decided to […]

Millcreek Canyon is such a beautiful place, Summer or Winter, Fall or Spring.  I love different aspects of each season.  I feel so lucky to live just 5 minutes away from this amazing place.  Saturday, Joe and I had a lot of errands to run and a funeral to attend but we had this window […]

It has been a long January and one in which I have not run outside. Cold and dark and the worst news of all is that my running partner, Sue Oldroyd, has a knee that may have her giving up running all together and that is sad news.  Sue and I ran our first marathon […]
