I live in La Verkin, Utah. My wife, Sunny and I have 3 boys and 1 special little girl
I teach 7th grade Utah History at Hurricane Intermediate School and Driver's Education at Millcreek High School.
Sick stayed home from work. This is not a good week to be sick, with the marathon coming up on Saturday. Been throwing up, feel dizzy, and I have a headache that won't go away.

Sorry to hear you're sick. Tell those kids at school to cover their mouths when they cough. Hopefully it will clear up soon.
What are you guys' plans this weekend other than the marathon? We were thinking we might stay and watch some conference with you guys if it won't interfere with anything.

Yeah Steve that won't be a problem stay as long as you need or want. What time are you coming down?

Kate gets done with preschool around 2:30 pm, so we'll head down after that. So realistically, we'll probably get to LaVerkin around 7-8 pm. Does Jordan have a game that night?

Jordan does have a game at 7:00 against Pine View Friday night. Not sure how much he will get to play since it is varsity, kind of depends on what the score is. What time are you shooting for in the marathon? I have no idea where I'm at?

Where's the game? Hurricane? We can meet you there if you think that would work. My cell is 801 471 4924.
I was going to try to run 3:10 or so due to lack of training. But then I talked to Steiger, and he encouraged me to try for a 3:00. If I can do it, that will be awesome. If not, I have nothing to lose.
What are you thinking?

Yeah I'm in the same boat with time goals. I've had such bad experiences the last few years. My friend Bill wants me to try to help him break 3. My vote would be try to run 7's until mile 18 and then pick it up from there. My last three marathons have been ugly 3:15, 3:18, and 3:18. If I just could run 7's the entire way that would be a 3:03. A few weeks ago I did 15 down the course and averaged 6:49, so hard to know where I'm at as far as fitness.

Hi D,
I saw your comment on the discussion forum. That group is planning to go through the half at around 1:29 or 1:30, so that might be faster than what you want to do. When i calculated out the splits, I was thinking that it might be best to hit the half around 1:32, which is about 7 minute pace average (faster on the downhill, slower on the uphill). So maybe we should meet up with the group but then see how we feel and can always back off if their pace is too fast?
Also, I'm going to need to go to the expo before we go to LaVerkin, so we probably won't get to LaVerkin until at least 8 pm. We can meet you at the high school or whatever you prefer.
