Just made it to London. We spent yesterday in New York and it was freezing. Planning on running tomorrow.

I did not get into St.George and now not sure what I want to do.

Happy Running!

Spent today wallowing in self pity for not getting into St. George. Also spent the day in London and have on more before I am on to India.
I tried to post some pictures but could not get it to work. If anyone knows how - let me know , and I will post them.

Thanks!

I'm sorry you didn't get in to SGM! I didn't either. But I'm not giving up! Good luck on the trip. Keep posting and letting us know how it's going!

Oh man! that stinks alot of good people didn't get in to good old SG. Sometimes I wonder why we all think SG is the only one we can do. I guess it is because so may of us are down there and it is a fun enviroment.

Jody, bummer, bummer, bummer. There are some good fall marathons that are not too expensive to travel: TOU, Pocatello, Las Vegas. If you don't mind traveling with some cost: Disney World and Honolulu. TOU is a little tougher than St.George, but, still a good marathon with bloggers running.

Ah man! Sorry to hear you didn't get in Kim or Jody. Let me know if you aren't opposed to running under someone else's name. I can be on the lookout down here in St. George. Last year I knew a couple people giving up their spots. Like Brent said, there are LOTS of other good races too. Hopefully you can sign up for one soon to stay motivated. Hope you can get your pics to work, I want to see them!

If you register 2 times for the marathon and don't get in I think on your 3rd time the lottery picks you. My husband was reading something about that on the marathon website. I'm jealous you get to run around London. Enjoy. Happy Mother's Day tomorrow.
