Qualify for Boston... missed it by 8 seconds previously

Run one of those rediculously aided Utah half-marathons helter skelter down a canyon and get a PR.

Personal:

Married with three boys. Ran the Odgen Marathon in honor of my mother, a marathoner, who passed away from cancer and it just had continued from there. Grew up in a running family and have fallen in love with running, especially on trails.

My 2nd and 3rd legs of the Wasatch Ragnar,

Leg 23, started about 2am, I really enjoyed myself on this run, no music, didn't check my Garmin, just delighted in the ability I have to run under a big moon in the middle of the night under the stars.  Started out fairly easy and progressed from there, ended up with a 7:16 AP with 429ft of elevation gain in the 5.5 miles.

 

My last leg (35) is the drop down from the top of Guardsman's Pass down into Park City, legs responded ok but once again just tried to enjoy the run and not kill the legs too much, averaged 7:03 for the run but was in the low 6's for much of the first few miles, due to he 2791' of elevation loss. 

 

Overall I had fun and got to get to know some of my neighbors better and made some great friends.  I never go into these with a competitive team and just have fun and eat some delicious junk food.  Now a day later my calves are a bit tight but did some jogging and walking with the family and I hopefully will be good to go again this week after a few days of taking it easy.  Go team Wasatch Your Back...
