Went and measured a new La Verkin 5k loop from the new house.  The route goes down Main Street past the Stake Center, then past Farmer's down to 300 West, then back to the South, through Pheasant Glen, then over to 400 South, then back on Main Street.  3 miles measured right at the mailbox on Main Street, then the .01 just up 200 North.  Entire route measures 3.2 all the way to the house.  Ran the 5k in 22:44

After running the 5K loop, I then did an out and back over to the old house, one mile each way.  It was nice to be out running, a little windy and chilly, but not bad.  Run right after eating a big dinner, which didn't feel too good.

How's the unpacking going? I'm glad your feeling better from the race. Man! I still have so much disappoint from the race that I can't get it out of my head. I know you can't predict the conditions, but when you travel so far and have confidence it sure beats you down.

I hope the new house is going well. It's sounds like you didn't move that far from your old house. I apologize that I didn't get to talk to you while I was in St. George.

I am glad to see you out running again. I actually just hit the asphalt yesterday for the first time since the marathon. I might be coming down for the Snow Canyon Half, I will watch for you. Hopefully now that you are settled you can get out more.

Kory, things with the house are good. I agree it is hard to train so long for a race and then have such a sorry performance, I just know I'm much better than what I showed this year. I'm hoping to bounce back and find a few more races before the end of the year. I'm also thinking about doing the LA Marathon in Feb. Don't worry about not visiting much at the marathon. I wasn't feeling too great so I took off shortly after I finished.

Tyler- that would be great, let me know whenever you're down and we can get together for a run
