Easy run tonight, I did 5 miles over to the Hurricane Cheveron and back, then I ran 1.5 miles with Sunny up to her parents and back. Legs a little sore from the 30K on Saturday, but I'm looking forward to this week and the Hurricane Half. Last year I ran 1:21 something and this year I would really like to take 2 or 3 minutes off of that time. The course is not as fast as one might think, there is some gradual downhill the first three or four miles, then a gradual climb out of Virgin to the La Verkin Overlook, then some major downhill that can really work the legs if not prepared, after the downhill, you have some flat running through La Verkin, then finish with a little uphill heading into Hurricane (which is the same boring direction I run almost every other day) the last mile is fairly flat as you come into town.

Dustin

When/where does the 1/2 marathon start? I am actually vacationing in Zion's this weekend and may be able to convince my wife to let me run it (I know she would be so excited to start our vacation with another race...)

Dustin, good job on Sat. It must have been cool runnning with all the other blog guys.

I hope you didn't show up this morning at the track. We ended up not meeting for morning speed.
