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.

We did a service project helping a neighbor tear off his roof over the weekend and Monday.  I am getting old because it wiped me out, being in the sun all day working.  Slept in the last few days and just went to work.  Had to force myself to break out of the slump this morning.  Trail run from the hot springs road along the foothills with my dog.  AP 8:31

Ran the road leading to the towers up on Thompson Basin.  Steady climb the first few miles then ran home.  Some tightness/slight pain in my right leg, I will have to keep an eye on.

Met up with a group from the Utah County Trail Runners at the Rock Canyon parking lot at 5AM.  Ran to the top of Provo Peak and back, about 6,000' of climbing with a couple thousand feet of climbing in the last mile to the top.  I was feeling the lack of miles on the way back but it wasn't too bad.  Still took me 4:47 round trip so more time on my legs than a marathon and now a couple days later I can attest my quads took a pounding about like a marathon.  Really fun run with a new group...
