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.

Ran around the grass/soccer fields while waiting for my son's football practice to get over.

Parked at the Jr. High then ran up past the mystic hot springs up the slot canyon.  Good trail run with my dog this monring.  Came out and looped around the elk farm and back to the truck.

Went to the dirt road from Bishops with the dog.  Nice run this morning.  I came to the realization I need to lose some pounds now when my mileage is still lower.  Once my training ramps up I get too hungry and it is hard to lose much.  If I can just be disciplined for two or so weeks I should be able to get to about where I need then just maintain from there.

Got in late from the football game last night.  Didn't want to get up too early to run so I went fly fishing instead.  Had a blast catching fish about every cast.  Ran in the afternoon after work...I would like to build up to a tempo run once a week, eventually 10 miles.  Did a two mile warm up then did one mile at what felt like tempo pace currently, there was a bunch of headwind and ended up with 7:05, for the mile then did another mile at base pace to end it.  I will have to be patient about incorporating speed into any workout now, but hopefully it will come back.

Went to the foothills south of town, pretty good climb the first mile all off trail, then weaved through the cedars back down,  got stuck in no mans land with cactus, rocks, and pokey grass, turned around back through the cedars to the truck.  Dog had fun chasing rabbits... mostly a recovery jog/hike for me
