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.

Figured I would at least document, so I can track the progress. Pulled my injury again last Tue. 07/23, at a basketball game at work I was talked into, lately it has taken about a week and a half to get back into running condition without doing too much damage. Hopefully this week I can hit the mountains and trails again without pulling anything.

PM: went on a 3 mile hike with my wife and our dog to the upper watertowers above the house. Ran about a half mile, felt ok. Itching to run again, don't want to pull anything but needing a good run.

About a mile or a bit more running back and forth between my oldest football tryouts and my other son's first day of practice. The practices were on opposite sides of the school, and I wanted to see as much as possible of both practices. Legs felt ok, should start running for real again tomorrow.

Morning run up Grandeur peak with some of the Wrangler group. Feeling the legs out the first bit, felt ok so I kept goint to the top. Gorgeous sunrise at the top, then cruised down and got to work before 7am. What a great way to start the day, looking for one more peak this week, well maybe two...

Added another mile at football practice tonight doing the same thing as last night....football is here and my summer afternoons are officially over.

Fun adventure this morning put together by Neasts. There were six of us on the run this morning to the top of Flattop Mountain. Lots of trail finding and some scrambling, had a great time and my legs are officially trashed. Coming down and cruising through the overgrown trail made my shins pretty cut up with little cat like scratches. Stung for a while in the shower afterwards. But all in all everyone made it out in one piece and had a blast. Two and a half more weeks and I get to spend a solid week out in the mountains, can't wait.
