Tom and I hitched a ride with the nice southerners, (Mike, Marcie, Dustin, Bill, James and a couple of their friends), from the finish line of SGM up about 14 miles. Thank you so much to Mike and his wife, (Calleen, I think), for letting us join in with you! It was quite fun running down the SGM course with Tom! My knee tried to wimp out on me between miles 11-12, but with a little slow down it did fine the whole way! We were hoping more for a 15 miler, but the finish line came at about 14.25. We went around the park a bit to get to 14.5, but then the drinking fountain and bathroom looked very inviting so we called it a day! Later we went in to the St. George Running Center to check on some shoes Tom had ordered. While there, Steve and Logan hooked me up with a new pair of shoes that I think I will use for the marathon. Thank you so much to Steve and Logan for some very great customer service! You made my shoe buying experience much better than I have ever had! I've never had anyone that knows what they are doing sit down and help me like you did! I definitely reccommend anyone who needs running shoes to go in and visit with one of these two guys! Anyway, Tom and I had a great time down in St. George! Thanks so much to Tyler and Kellie Shepherd for letting us use their cute little home down there! It's kind of fun to forget you are parents for a few days! (However, it is now Sunday and we are back home and I am very happy to be with the kids again too!)
