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.

Not much actually running lately but I have been spending every spare moment in the mountains bowhunting/backpacking. Lots of time on the legs during the past couple weeks, been itching to get out and "run" but still trying to fill the freezer and have until Friday to get it done. It's been good for my soul to get off work and back in the high country and have learned some cool spots on the mountain.

Ran with the dog up to the hot pots then followed the dirt trail along the foothills until I hit three miles then turned around. Could tell I lost a lot of speed and will probably hit the roads this weekend to get some turnover.  I tried to give about a 8 min effort the last mile or so and I was running much slower.  Well I might have to wait after tomorrow morning to hit the roads as I plan on hitting the mountain before work tomorrow morning.  AP 9:27 with around 600 ft of elevation gain.

Another day hiking in the mountains, had a good time, about 1000' feet elevation gain and loss. Had a few big bull elk bugling all around me. Love this time of year in the mountains.
