My blog is pretty boring this week!  Vacation to St. George next week means lots of shifts in a row with little sleep this week and early next to avoid using PTO.  I can't wait for the Snow Canyon half next Saturday! :)

Sounds like a good workout!

So, your comment about stacking your shifts reminded me of a funny website I think you'll appreciate.

Haha, that website is so funny!! "When I successfully shoot my gloves into the trash from across the room." It's all so true!

I love your workout description!!! :)

I am toying with the idea of running Snow Canyon. I should have registered before the prices went up. :)

I do have to be in Richfield around noon though. :)

I'll be pacing 1:45 at Snow Canyon this weekend. You should start with me and then beat me because I think you are capable of 1:42-1:43 on that course. :)

See you Saturday!

Teena, that would be great if you did! Let me know if you end up doing it.

Rachelle, that's awesome you'll be there! My PR is 1:40 on that course so 1:42ish makes me nervous haha. I wish you were doing 1:50, but I may just try to stick with you. :)
