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.

Ran from my house with the dog.  Ran up to the foothills then up and across the trails leading to the mouth of the canyon.  Ran a mile or so up the canyon road until I hit the gate then came back the same way.  Legs are feeling really fresh and wanted to run this morning.

Another really good morning run with my dog.  Went along the dirt roads heading South of town.  Ran up the trail to the base of the mountain along the foothills.  Watched the deer streaming out of the open fields back up the mountain.  Nice sunrise then headed back down went off trail for a mile or so following the path of the deer from where the came up from hoping to find a fresh antler shed to pay for some new running shoes.  No luck, but something to do.  Kept a steady pace back to my vehicle and felt good to be running healthy and smooth.

Decided to try to keep my runs relatively flatish this week and average about 10 miles per day to build efficency on the flatter miles towards the end of the race.  Went from Bishops to the dirt road heading out to Poverty Flats.  Decent dirt road/4 wheeler trails with only 500' of climbing.  AP 8:43.

Hit the Red Rock trail again this morning.  Legs were feeling really good this morning.  Just an enjoyable time running this morning.  AP 8:48 with the hills, stream crossings, and such...

Ran off trail through the foothills south of town.  Found one four point deer antler...  Just a relaxing Friday morning run exploring around.

Had the in-laws in town to watch TJ's wrestling tournament.  Steve wanted to go fisihing at the pond after the tournament.  I ran up to the pond the back way on the trails and met him up there.  Caught a few fish on my fly rod at the pond then ran back home.  Good way to spend the afternoon.
