I decided I want to be one of those people who run I decided I want to be one of those people who run so many marathons that it stops hurting.

Weekend trip: ✈️ Nor Cal Championship muscle c Weekend trip: ✈️ Nor Cal Championship muscle contest. 💪 I took a quick trip to sacramento for another bodybuilding show. The competition for my age group keeps getting tougher! There were more girls 40 years and over than there were younger. And the 45+ category was one of the biggest groups! Not sure how I placed yet because they only awarded placings 1-5. But I had so much fun with friends and met some new awesome girls!!

Quick race post for posterity 𝐔𝐭𝐚𝐡 𝐕𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐲 𝐌𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐧 My first marathon was 2001 in St. George with a time of 4:51. Yesterday, 21 years later, I got a 3:32 in Provo! (BQ by 18 minutes and 2nd in my age group. I even stopped for a bathroom break at mile 13, and I finished with more gas in the tank, zero nausea, and very little soreness. Wahoo. And so I don't forget, here's what was different this time: *I'm doing a lot of strength training. *I hired a coach who gave me speed workouts and pace goals, which I never tried before. ( @krisrs ) *I trained on the course itself. *I ate a LOT of carbs (500 grams) *I practiced my nutrition on long runs. 1 banana 1 hour before, Honey Stinger wafer 30 minutes before, and Salted Caramel Gu every 45-60 minutes. * I drank water at every aid station, plus what I had in my vest. *I got Saucony Pro shoes. (these are amazing!) So yeah- I'm definitely looking at Boston hotels now and can't wait till my next marathon. #utahvalleymarathon #bq #bostonqualifier #running #utahrunning
