13.1 mile morning run today. The same run as yeasterday morning. Up to powerline over to top of Middleton trail, down to golf course then back up trail to powerline and back home. My left leg feels pretty good. I'm still a little worried to push the pace- will try it Saturday morning for a few. I just ran easy this morning. It felt a lot smoother than yeasterday but it ended up being slower 7:45 min/mile pace and today 7:57 min/mile pace. It didn't matter, I was never running against the clock. Now we take off to Moab for the rest of the weekend. I'll try and get a run in there tonight and then hook something fun up for Friday and Saturday. Saturday there is a 50 mile trail race from the mountain down to Moab. I am going to try and run the last 17-20 on Saturday morning as a training run- if the race director will let me. I think his name is Chris Martinez (anyone know him). It's called the Moiab Alpine to Slickrock 50 Mile- www.mas50.com. It looks way fun and if the STGM wasn't just around the corner I'd be really tempted to jump in the whole race. Well I'm already tempted but I know it would be a dumb move.

4 miles here in More miles around the golf course. This is the 4th year we have come here in September. Very, very nice! Good to get away from STG for a while.

Clyde, your best bet for jumping into that race may be seeing if you can hook up with one of the leaders and have you pace them.
