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.

Run up the Monroe Canyon road up to Monrovian followed the trails along the creek until it was washed out. I could tell heading down the mountain I have about zero speed anymore. It wasn't the purpose of this run, but I can tell I need to work on it. Good morning, dog enjoyed it, and so did I.

Woke up pretty sore and creaky, like an old man, so I decided to take a recovery run up to the hot pots. The pots are about a mile and a half from the house, enjoyed a relaxing soak in the natural pools and let the healing waters do their magic, then floated on home. It was nice overlooking the green fields, felt much better afterwards.

Ran up the Thompson Basin Dirt Road to the towers then hit the single track heading up the mountain.  3,589 of elevation gain, AP 13:00, ran solo, legs will be feeling this one for a while.  I was hoping to see more deer and elk up there, I will have to drive to the single track and start from there, thank goodness for gps as I got off the trail a couple times and had to check my track up to get me back on track.  Really pretty country, legs felt like they ran 20 plus miles, at least I got 3 hours on the legs.
