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.

Memorial Day: Woke up and did four repeats at the hot springs with Laci.  6.2 miles

Then drove to Kanarraville Falls with the family and hiked up the awesome slot canyon to the falls.  Had a great time hiking through the creek and enjoying the time with the family.  6.6 mile hike

Ran the foothill trails above town this morning.  Did two hot springs repeats then ran up to the fishing pond.  Needed to add some mileage so did two miles around the pond then headed back.

Got tricked into playing soccer with my boys at practice last night.  Could tell when I woke up my legs were not used to the sprints and cutting.  Decided to take off some mileage and do an easy run up the canyon on the road to Monrovian then back down.  Started to loosen up about a mile or so in.

We have the father and sons campout this weekend and I needed to get a long run in this week so I decided to get it done this morning.  Was planning on 25 but that is so close to a marathon I might as well do that.  Went solo to the trails above Richfield.  Made sure I did the 104/CC loop twice to get some extra climbing.  Had four chomps along the way and a small pack of peanut M&M's.  Just tried to stay steady throughout the trail run AP 10:05.  Now two more weeks before the Bryce 50 mile race... not too excited to sit behind my desk for the next few hours.  Hopefully my legs do not tighten up too much.
