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.

Started at the rodeo ground and headed to the mouth of the canyon then over past mystic and back.  My back was very tight during the run so I just took it easy.  Temps were in the single digits and could surely feel it early this morning.  Tried out the new headlamp I bought over the weekend and it seemed to work well.

Felt much better today, decided to take it easy yesterday.  Went out from the bottom of the hot springs up the rocky hill to the top or elk hill.  Linked up again with the trail at the top and went south until I again dropped off back down the slotish canyon back behind the hot springs.  Had a pretty big fresh cougar track I was following back down the canyon.  I think my dog jumped it on the way back down as she stopped and started staring and I asked her what was it.  We got to where she was looking and the tracks began there.  Pretty cool but a little nerve racking as I run solo but at least I had my dog just in case.

Got some new pairs of shoes in the mail last night.  Tried out my new Altra The One 2.5 this morning.  Felt really good, should be a fast road shoe.  Ran from the house to the end of Sierra Vista Road.  Kept a good pace heading up and on the way back.  Still need to build my endurance as the last couple miles were a struggle, still ran the route faster than I have before.  AP 7:36
