After work I met up with my boys to finish up some lawns.  We finished one at the top of Bountiful, and I had stranded my car at Grandma's.  So I sent them onto the last one, and ran down to pick up my vehicle.  No more running till Saturday.  Easy pace.  I had on a beat up pair of 3 years ago running shoes, my jeans shorts and t-shirt.  I heard a deer snort.  For reals.

i was in my last year of college before i had any evidence that deer actually make noises. i was running along a trail and saw a deer struggling to get through a hole in a chain link fence. it was squeal-snorting. i told my roommates and they didn't believe me. looks like i will have to contact all of them and direct them to your blog.

good luck tomorrow, kam.

It was a strange thing, allie. Strange, but true. I return the salutation and wish you luck. May the tailwind push you along, and when that wears out, let your well-trained legs carry you to a swift finish.

Hey GOOD LUCK this weekend! You will do great!!!

My question is. . . did you snort back?

Snorting deer? For real, huh. I ran in to one on Thursday. It was in the middle of the road and just stared at my head lamp and then took off. No snorting.

GOOD LUCK!!! Excited to hear how it goes.

Kind of a deer in the head lamp sort of thing, Kelli? Amber, I didn't snort back. I was so taken aback I couldn't come up with a suitable comeback quickly enough. What I should have said was "zssnght."

If you had run shirtless in those jean shorts with a bandanna and a moustache, you would have been pretty awesome. Have a good marathon!!
