AM - 10 miles. Went to the Skyline High School w/ Andrea and did a workout. Warmed up, then did a 2 mile tempo on the road (10:20), jogged a few minutes, then went to the track and ran 8 x 400m (Avg 70.4 seconds) w/ 200m recovery jog. Felt good considering I ran 50+ miles in the previous 2 days.

PM - 4.4 miles after spending a fun couple hours at the DMV. Now I'm officially a Utah resident. I probably should have gotten that taken care of about 15 months ago.

You rock my world! Nice workout.

Utah! With its mountains and valleys.

Utah! With its canyons and streams.

You can go anywhere.

But there's none that compare.

This is the place!

anyway, congrats on the utah residency. that probably just ruined it for you...

Is that really a song Utahns sing? If so, I gotta hear that in person!

From Jake K on Tue, Aug 09, 2011 at 22:58:51 from 67.177.21.60

That actually makes me never want to leave Utah and totally makes the DMV experience worth it!

ha ha Andrea I will sing it to you! Welcome to Utah Jake. :)

Oh and great mileage!

unfortunately, yes. it's a real song. and i even picked the verse with the least painful lyrics. you should check out the verse about new technology. or pioneers.

WOW what a song! I am totally going to memorize this, and Andrea is going to hate you allie (and me) b/c of this! What new technology were they singing about in 1996? CD players?

Got the Mp3 for my ipod. Jackpot!!!
