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.

Went on the Camp Williams loop from my house this afternoon.  I have been very busy the last two days and did not make it out.  Took the day off of work today to spend some time with my wife.  Wanted to get a decent run in today, went out to Redwood then up the hill past Camp Williams then down past the memorial park to the JRP.  Headed south on the JRP until 2100 north, then headed back up the hill to home.  Ran fairly strong the whole run.  Had a nice headwind once I hit 4 miles then all the way back home.  I ran this run this past Oct. here were my splits from the last run:

 7:49,8:00,8:12 (up the big hill),7:22,7:38,7:29,7:55,7:53,7:55,7:56,7:34,

Todays splits:

Met up with Chet during our lunch time, for a run on the JRP.  My legs were pretty fatigued when we started.  He wanted to to 2 miles @7:08 pace. 1 mile warm up then started the 1st mile repeat, almost let him go as my legs did not respond at first, then got into a groove and got it done, 7:03, 7:04, with a mile cool down back to the cars.

It was very nice to run with Chet again and catch up on old times.  We'll have to try to do it again more often, now that I work out of Draper.

Did another mile and change with the dog in the fields when I got home.  She jumped up two big rooster pheasants which got her motivated to run more.

3 easy miles with the wife and dog around the hood, then dropped off the dog and the wife and ran 2 more over to my son's basketball practice which I coached today.

Got up early this morning to the sound of wind.  I got dressed to head out for the run and my poor tummy started protesting the milk I drank last night.  I did not have time to see if it would settle down, so I changed into my inside clothes and headed to the academy for a treadmill run. 

Only had one emergency potty break about a mile in, then the stomach was ok for the rest of the run.  First three miles @8:13, the miles three to ten @8:00, then the last 3.1 at 7:47, to just average 8:00 for the run. 

Brought a dvd and watched the office the whole run.  Had the gym all to myself.  I might try to get some extra miles in later.  I had to get back, eat, change coach Jr. Jazz at 9:00 AM.
