Great week. Looks like you haven't lost much fitness at all. It'll be fun to see your success this fall.

Thanks Trevor.

What are your plans? School going okay?

Schools good. Finishing up my first clinical up here in Idaho. Going to run Hobble Creek and SGM I think. Trying do the 12 week crash course for the marathon haha.

12 weeks is a perfect training block. Come in a little under prepared but not burned out. That's when I always race the best. Also I didnt know you were in Idaho, thought you were still in the Provo Area.
