Great run, looking good for UVM. Are you in? Are you staying in Provo on Friday night?

Jeff- I am in the marathon. I think this has been a blessing in disguise. A couple extra weeks of training has been helpful. I am heading down Friday, but don't really know what time yet.

How you feeling, you ready to rock it??

Feeling pretty good. Hoping to run well in the mid 2:30's for the race. Are you shooting for sub-2:30?
