Started at a 12:30 pace to warm up and then continued to knock it up about every .5 miles. (Treadmill, I let chris have the outside today since I got it yesterday) Finished with under a 10m/m pace but it wasn't for very long.

My goal for hobble creek this weekend is 2:2something.  I did 2:50 in Ogden and I know I am going to smash that time.

Okay I now have 28 minutes to get ready for school, I got to move it move it, I got to move it move it I like to MOVE IT!!!

 OH, just repeating myself, can anyone pick up my packet for me in on Friday, I would get it from you later that evening? Thanks!!!

Today on the email I received from Hobble Creek said that a picture ID will be required for packet pick up. I'm not sure if we could get around that some way or not. I would be glad to pick it up if they will let me. But I would probably have to get it to you the morning of the race instead of Friday evening.

Kim, thank you soooooooo much for offering, I thought it would be okay because their website said you only needed full name and birthday but my husband called this afternoon and he got the day off from work so I will be able to make down in time for friday night pickup.

But you are the greatest for trying to help!!!!

Great Laurie,

Please come up to me and say hi if you see me! My purple ponytail will be straight. If Jody wears one it will be a curly one. Good luck!

Good luck on achieving your goal, Laurie. I hope the run goes well this weekend.

Good luck at Hobble Creek!! What a great name for a foot race, lol. Just remember the 3 cardinal rules of racing: don't go out too fast, don't go out too fast, don't go out too fast. Enjoy.
