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.

I was pretty beat yesterday.  Slept in, did a couple minutes on the stationairy bike at work.  Woke up today feeling somewhat better, could tell my legs took a beating from the paved running last weekend.  Started at the bottom of the hot springs and went straight up the hills behind them off trail just following deer trails.  Fairly steep for the first mile and a half, then jumped on the 4 wheeler track on the top and then cut off again and wound my way back down to the petroglyph canyon and then looped back to the car.

Went up shingle creek, to scrub flat trail, to Washburn lake.  Hit the ridge above the lake and looped around back down.  Good climb on the way up to the lake.

Ran from the side canyon just North of the mouth of the canyon.  Had fun exploring up the game trails up the mountain on a blustery morning.  Went up for an hour then started working my way back down.

Went to Capital Reef with the family, did some hikes and ran back down with Trenton.

Went to Hickman Bridge in the morning then hiked to Cassidy Arch.  Beautiful area to enjoy with the family.
