15 miles this morning in the wet, cold rain. I just remembered how I had ran the whole St. George marathon last year with my wife in the rain and it kept me going.

A pretty good week. I ended up taking Moday off again. The body was tired and needed some extra rest, hopefully that's not the cast next week.

I registered for the Top Of Utah Marathon!! I'm pretty excited for it. I've never ran it. This is going to give me something to focus on now for the rest of my training. I hear it's a fast course, but looking at times, it looks like it's about 4 to 5 minutes slower then the St. George?

Does that sound about right? Does anyone have any idea?

You can use the race predicter for an idea of the difference. I am not sure. TOU sounds like a great marathon. I would suggest racing the 1/2 marathon in August.
