Race: St. George Marathon (26.2 Miles) 03:32:02, Place in age division: 46

I stayed at the condo again the night before the race.  I had a great time hanging out with the girls.  We made our own pasta dinner.  It was yummy.  I took 3/4 of an Ambien at about 10:00 and slept great until the alarm went off at 4:00 a.m. 

As soon as we got to the start, we got in line for the Port-A-Potties.  The lines were not moving.  We were still about 3 people away when the gun went off.  I was so bumbed we didn't get to start with the 3:30 pace group along with Dean and Jody.  

I started with Angela and Michelle.  Michelle decided to hold back after the 1st mile.  I ran with Angela until mile 11.  She was having some tummy problems.  I waited for her twice, but by the 3rd time I decided I'd better just keep on going.   

I felt really good.  I wanted a 3:30 so bad.  The slower first two miles put me behind and I never could made up that time.  I am little disappointed with my time but it was still over a 4 minute PR.   The best part of the whole race was that I didn't have to stop to go to the bathroom even once.  That's never happened before.  I even had a negative split by over 2 minutes.

My splits were 8:46, 8:24, 7:44, 7:42, 7:46, 8:21, 7:26, 8:46, 8:33, 8:14, 8:26, 8:38, 7:41, 7:44, 7:29, 7:41, 7:35, 8:01, 8:08, 7:53, 7:36, 8:07, 8:05, 7:56, 8:21 and 8:34.

I took a gu miles 5, 11, 17 and 21.  I drank gatorade at the other stops. 

It was so great to hang out with everyone after the race.  It was a fun day.

Met some of the BBK's who didn't run just run a marathon.  We did the SJ 5k route twice.  It was hard and I shouldn't have run as fast as I did, but I was enjoying the company.  Average pace 8:30.

Fun Run.  My husband and my three kids did the 1 mile race.  They did great.  My daughter took 1st place overall.  It was an out and back course with the first half mostly downhill then the second up mostly uphill.  I'm too lazy to write the details.  Rachel and Cheryl both have great race reports so I'll refer to theirs.

Met the BBK's for the spooky Halloween run.  We did some intervals around the cemetary and some hill repeats.
