Not get injured and stay consistent with my training.

Long-Term Running Goals:

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.

Run with Blake around liberty park. I was worried about this run due to the large amount of BBQ I ate prior to our run.

2 laps 1st lap 11:22 second lap 9:48

I decided to try a push it a bit on the second lap. It felt pretty good. Still trying to build on my speed.

3 easy miles with Laurel around the hood. We did also go hiking with the kids this morning up Big Cottonwood canyon.  Probably went a couple miles.  Leaves are beautiful this time of year.

Had a great run, we rented a cabin in Hatch, Ut. for the weekend.  I took off a little bit before sunrise and ran up the dirt road into Proctor Canyon.  It was fair to moderate uphill on the way up.  Miles up were as follows: 8:46,8:50,8:59,9:28, and 10:10.  I just enjoyed the views on the way up.  It was fun coming down to let my legs carry me when the terrain allowed.  Miles back were: 7:53,7:24,7:07,7:01, and 6:50.  AP for the run 8:15.

I am hopefull if I keep my training up and stay injury free I can have some breakthrough runs in the next weeks/months.

I hiked with the family an additional 4 plus miles in and around Bryce Canyon later during the day.  We sure live in an amazing world!
