I am in St. George for a weekend with family.  I met Marcie early and my very nice Father drove us up the marathon route.  We started one mile prior to Veyo and then ran down the course.   I felt great!  I know that I pushed more than I should have for a training run but it is hard to slow down with all the down hill.   It definitly boosted my confidence for the marathon.   This run was done with an ave pace of 8:04 - 17 seconds faster than my average at last years marathon.   I could have easily done more mileage, not sure if I am ready for 26.2 but so excited.

Ave Pace 8:04

Happy Running!
