Run on trails as much as I can.

Not get injured and stay consistent with my training.

Complete a 50 and 100 mile ultra.

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.

Felt like I pulled a calf muscle last week after my one run. Didn't want to turn in into an injury so took it easy the last few days. Finaly didn't hurt walking up and down the stairs so I went out this morning. Ran by moonlight, on the loop south of town.  First couple miles on pavement then the rest on dirt country roads.  Legs felt ok, my camelback hose froze and I was cold the whole run.  I though it was supposed to be warming up.  AP 8:22

I was hoping to do 10 miles on the trails, but didn't want to push my legs, yet.

Had a really good run this morning, waited until around 0830 to hit the Red Hills this morning. I ran the trail portion again, first mile has the biggest climb then rollers the rest of the way with some short steep up and down places.  I will sign up for the race here next month, my first trail race.  I was wondering if I could average under 9 a couple weeks ago now I am pretty confident I  can run it somewhere in the 7's.   Miles for future reference - 8:51,9:02 (stopped at least a minute this mile trying to adjust GPS while it kept running,) 7:43,8:13,8:21,7:56,7:51,8:12,8:17,8:08

AP 8:15 with the stop

Got me some gaiters a couple weeks ago (dirty girl's) they have been working great, no rocks in the shoes...
