10 easy mile this morning. I was thinking about the promotion at Bullfrog the whole time I was running and wondering if I was going to get the job. When I got home I recieved the call. Yes, I got it!! It looks like me and the family are going to be moving to Bullfrog Lakepowell. I'll be going from working off of ATV's to working on boats, and waverunners. I love my job.

I'll be about 5 to 6 hours away from this area now, which means I probably wont be doing any more local runs around here any more, besides the St. George marathon of coarse. It's bitter sweet, but I think it's the right move for the family right now in our lives.

Congrats on the promotion. I'm sure you will enjoy the new job and challenge. I hope all goes well with the move and transition. Sorry to hear about your father. I had a guy attempt to run with me off the road the other morning, was really upsetting.

Where is Bullfrog Lakepowell and what's your occupation?

There's places to run everywhere!

Bullfrog is a boating marina at the top Northern half of Lake Powell. It's about 70 miles South of Hanksville and about 11 miles South of Ticaboo. I don't know if that helps? I'm a Utah State Park Ranger. I'm law enforcement. I do patrol from boats, ATV's and snowmobiles. I love my job.

I've already found a good spot to run, the Burr trail. It's kind of like the Ragnar portion of the Wasatch Back Relay. It's going to be challenging.
