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

1st - Socal Super Spartan 2013

1st - Texas Sprint Spartan2013

2nd- Las Vegas Super Spartan 2013

3rd - Arizona Sprint Spartan 2013

3rd - Atlas Obstacle Race 2013

5th - Spartan World Championships 2013

 

Future Races

October?? maybe Sacramento Beast Spartan

December - Texas Beast

 

 

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.

It's so weird to go from exercising 2 to 3 hours a day, to less than 1.  i have to get it in my head that 1 workout is ok.  It's more than enough right now.

I ran 8 on the treadmill averaging 8:10, and it felt ok.  a lot better than sat for sure.  I'm going to do 10 on fri to see if i can handle it.  if so i'll go ahead and run the half next weekend.  I'll have to carry gatorade with me since im learning that i  can't let my blood sugar drop while running pregnant.  My body doesn't want to use my fat reserves, so it just ends up slowing me down and making me feel like crap.  I just drank gatorade instead of water today and it seemed to help.

Hey girl! Nope, i think club runs are out as a 7 min mile is my speed run right now lol. it's also at 8 pm and that's when my zumba class is. I'm sad - it's hard to leave all that behind all of a sudden. I'll be a much happier lady once i get through this first trimester! ugh:) do you get sick with yours? I don't know how woman run long distances pregnant - i just had to opt out of my last saturday's race. Anyways, are you ready for saturday? I'm excited for ya!
