Easy 6 miles with last quarter fast in 1:18 for leg turnover.  6:20-7/min pace.

Badly wanted to run SLC half but just couldn't justify spending the money. These events are becoming so ridiculously expensive now so I have to pick them carefully and sparingly.  Wasn't easy though especially in light of the horrible tragedy in Boston this week.  I so wanted to be a part of this event to stand with everyone else and say that we will not be intimidated by such cowardly acts on our nation and we as a people.

I agree with you Steve. Especially when the race is a crappy race with crappy organizers like Salt Lake. You can run races like the Striders Half or the Thanksgiving Point Half and pay about 1/3 the price of Salt Lake, work with race directors who care about the sport, and have top notch competition.

I'm playing with the idea of running the 30k coming up however my longest run for quite some time has only been around 11-12 miles.

Would definitely be a first time outing just to see the country side:)
