Running Accomplishments:

-I'm an avid runner and crossfitter turned obstacle racer.  This year has brought on new and unexpected opportunities racing in Spartan races.  I'm in love with this new challenging part of my life.

Here is what I've come away with so far

2nd- Las Vegas Super Spartan 2013

3rd - Arizona Sprint Spartan 2013

Short-Term Running Goals:

I am working to become the best obstacle  racer I can be.  If that goes hand in hand with a National Championship title, than I will have met 2 of my goals/dreams.

 

Long-Term Running Goals:

Another sub 3 hour marathon

Sub 1:20 half marathon

I want to complete an ironman and some ultra races.

I Hope to be running until I'm 100.

 

Personal:

I have 2 boys (7 and 4) and a little girl (14 months) that keep me on my toes and make life worth living..  I've been married to my better half (Jim clark) for 10 years.  I teach fitness classes and am a personal trainer - my 2nd love is Zumba!  I love what i do!

I hold Obstacle Training Groups at my house on saturdays -I feel so blessed to be able to help others.

I taught my core class today and did everything - i killed my abs and had no unusual pain there.  I can't figure out why only certain things hurt them.

I went to a free PT session today, and wasn't exactly worth my time.  the part on my abs wasn't hurting where he inspected - he barely touched on it and said that it wasn't my abs that were the problem, that it was my ribs.  um i'm positive my abs are hurting.  he told me to not run any downhill since that's what aggrivates it (how does one avoid all downhill?)

So in my usual fashion, i wanted to prove to him that it was my abs, and i went and ran some serious hills.  I ran in hurricane down 600 n, and then back up.  I sped up on the 3 serious downhills, and then uphills on the way back.  That was a tough workout today!  average 7:30.

Taught core fushion - only did some

abs were ok until about mile 7. then i had to stop and massage.
