Not get injured and stay consistent with my training.

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.

No real runs over the weekend.  I did lug around my decoy bag duck hunting Fri. and Sat. as I hiked into my spots.  Good workout but not a run.  Went from the rodeo grounds this morning up the canyon road then along the canal trail for a couple miles with the dog.

Ran with the pup again starting on the trail leading up to the hot springs, up 2.5 to around elk hill then back.  Felt kinda creaky during the run so took it fairly easy.

Woke up this morning bright and early, got my running gear on and was headed out the door when I was met with rain, uggh.  Cold rain and I knew the trail I was headed to turns to clayish muck when wet.  So, chickened out and went back to bed.  Got a lunch time run in around Richfield along the canal trail.  Did a 2 mile tempo after a mile in the dirt path.  Both tempo miles were 6:59, then kept it easy back to my car.  I am slowly building my tempo runs.  Nothing too steep and hopefully I can not get injured and get some speed back.  Last week I was at 1.5  miles of tempo, hopefully building to a ten mile tempo once a week.

Couple miles with the pup south of town on the rolling trail.  Nice day to be out.  Couple strides on the last mile
