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.

Today was a nice easy run as i'm still recovering from my race (my abs are sore!)  I did go run some of the course of the dogtown half to get an idea of what it's going to be like.  It was beautiful and sunny at 11 am - wore my tank and shorts which always makes me happy!  I averaged an 8 min mile today, the first few miles felt pretty stiff, but eventually loosened up.  I felt great by the end of the 10 miles!

I taught a core strength class, as well as a flex (strength class) at wash rec today too, but did a lot more teaching than doing.  still trying to get my muscles recovered.

I'm still sore from saturday so didn't push too hard again.  i don't know how people can do speedwork right away after a race.  I did a 60 min spin class and really focused on fast turnover (yes i was way tired), and then ran around the track for 4 miles as that's all i can handle on the track.  My legs usually loosen up after being on the bike but didn't today.  I averaged about 7:30, but it didn't feel easy.  i plan on puting a little speedwork in tomorrow's workout.

 

got a massage from April Larson....owieee!!!! I'm feeling better though.

Hubby was out of town and couldn't find the time to run today. Taught my Zumba class at night.

My body is soo sore this week from everything - i needed a little speedwork but didn't want to push too much. I ran 5 on the treadmill, and then 4 outside when the babysitter arrived. my first 2 miles were 8 min miles, and then i did 5 min on, 5 min off with speedwork. I sped up to low 6 min miles for 5 min, then off. cooled down last mile. Jumped in the pool and got 1 mile in - i really worked on my glide today, making sure to keep one hand at the top til the other one got there - it felt really good! Finished a pretty easy mile in 35 min. I got a massage on wed so i'm hoping it will help my tight hammys.

I ran a nicely paced 20 miler with aimee langston  today- we ran the hurricane marathon course in the brisk 30 deg weather, but it warmed up about half way through.  Overall a beautiful, fun run!  I wish i could run with someone all the time cause this felt so much easier this day!  Our entire run average was 7:30, but again we weren't pushing speed.  I felt great the whole time and felt like i could sprint it in at the end.  I'm looking forward to the hurricane marathon - if we can keep the wind out of it, i think it will be a great race.  The only yucky part will be the 2-3 mile climb into hurricane on sr-9 at mile 21-23.  that's going to hurt a little.  My right hamstring started to get tight at about mile 16, but never really hurt.  my good old injury is acting up a little, and felt pretty tight on sunday.  I'm rolling and massaging like crazy, so i'm hoping i can stay on top of it!  I want to do speedwork on tues, but will have to see how it's doing first after teaching 3 classes tomorrow.  may get a sub for last two.   grrrr.
