Run on trails as much as I can.

Not get injured and stay consistent with my training.

Long-Term Running Goals:

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.

Day 107: The family got up before school and went running around the hood together.  It was nice.  My left foot has been hurting (too many tempo miles strung together last week) so I will take it easy this week hoping it will heal.

Day 108: Once again the three boys and my wife got up early before school and work and we ran together.  This time we ran on the trail to the hot springs, took a nice healing soak, then ran back.  So fun to do this with them, on a positive note, when I am not running so much I start to drop the pounds as I don't eat so many calories.

Another jog around the block this time with Spencer.  Still minimal pain in foot just trying to rest it before I begin training again.  Hopefully by the end of the weekend I will be able to tell how to proceed from there.

2 times around the in-law's culdesac, barely enough to keep the streak alive

Day 112: one mile with the family around the Lakeridge track.  Foot still has some pain, not too much when I run but don't want to prolong the injury.
