SOOOOOO glad I got my run in before finding out that I DID NOT GET INTO THE ST GEORGE MARATHON!!! after five lucky years NUMBER 7 (the total I would have run) was NOT SO LUCKY!!! I am flabbergasted. UVM was not WHERE I was going to break three hours plus hey SGM was a tradition. Now a HUGE LETDOWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Blah. blah. AP for 10 easy miles in the rain = 8:19.

Stink!!! I have no doubt that you are peaking just right for that sub-3 at UVM! You can bandit SGM for the tradition! :)

sorry julie :(

there is always TOU!!!! you know you want to...

From allie on Mon, May 09, 2011 at 12:57:40 from 161.38.218.168

also, smooth is right -- you are in sub-3 shape for UVM, as indicated by your amazing run on saturday. believe.

From JulieC on Mon, May 09, 2011 at 12:58:41 from 70.56.111.7

that's an old demon Allie-- I ran that the first year--- I hit the biggest wall in my running career there in 1999. Although I was not near as trained as I am now. YOU ARE SO FUNNY.

From JulieC on Mon, May 09, 2011 at 12:59:36 from 70.56.111.7

now I just read your other comment....I just had pictured me running sub 3 at sg george. UVM was just a build up to the FINALE.

I will work on BELIEVING but I am not good with PRESSURE. I will continue as is and if it feels like the thing to do then I will try.

From allie on Mon, May 09, 2011 at 13:02:31 from 161.38.218.168

i understand -- i also have a marathon demon and it's ogden. i'm not sure i will ever go back to that race, which is too bad because it's a great one.

it was really great to see you again on saturday. i hope your calf is doing ok. i'll see you at UV in june!

From JulieC on Mon, May 09, 2011 at 14:49:31 from 70.56.111.7

are you running the marathon with me? I mean in front of me ? : D

From seeaprilrun on Mon, May 09, 2011 at 20:54:34 from 174.70.177.86

Sub-3 at UVM Julie! You are there! This is it! ...I am bummed you didn't get into Saint George but you could bandit and pace me!!!

From JulieC on Tue, May 10, 2011 at 01:27:53 from 70.56.111.7

I would love to be there for you April. If I get a number somehow I will. It is my daughter's birthday so I guess I would just go to Lagoon like we have before and PRETEND to not think about SGM going on. TOU it will probably be snowing. UVM might have to be my last big race this year. btw SGM is 4 hours from my house. I am so bummed to not get to meet you. I am sure there must be a way I can get in...there is a drawing for a free entry at a race I will be running soon...but how can I beat out 500 people or more in a drawing for one spot? blah.

From JulieC on Tue, May 10, 2011 at 14:56:25 from 168.103.185.218

hey Allie, I looked into TOP OF UTAH and was liking the earlier time of year time frame and the fact that the first 18 miles are down hill. Even though not as steep by far as SGM. And hey if no big wig master person shows up I should be able to win some money : D. I can beat 3:15 there the top master time last year. Although I am just not sure of the mental change I need to make. At least the drive is shorter. : D.
