Personal:

I started running at age 40 (14 years ago!) I am married to Harold, he is a super supportive husband and we enjoy running and biking the trails along the Wasatch Front together. Between us we have 7 children and 9 grandchildren. I am really having fun trying new races in scenic parts of Utah, I am a newbie in the ultrarunning world, I am slow, but love everything about it! I have a lot to learn,but I am enjoying the journey.

Kim and I did a hike from the Orson Smith trailhead to Eagle's Nest trail, we didn't make it to the top due to a time crunch, but had a nice time anyway.

It is snowing out, I think I have the winter blues. I did muscle up but bailed out 10 miniutes early, I am thinking of climbing back into bed. 3 more days until we head out to St. George and then on to the beach house, I am not sure I can make it that long. I need sunshine and warmth.

Today was my Oval day, I did 10 miles with Gary. Sat. is the half marathon in St. George, I am not really "ready" but I will get thru it, I have got to start my 2010 race schedule, may as well do it in Jan. I feel like I am in pretty crappy shape, but I have done races in crappier shape, so whatever.... Is anyone else worried about the weather? I am not concerned about running in bad weather, just the drive down.

Is anyone nervous about the drive to St. George? This is killing me, I may have to back out.

I didn't do muscle-up today because if we do get to St. George I don't want to be stiff.

I am so bummed about this weather, I feel like heading down and then getting a hotel along the way if it gets too ugly. What are you doing???

3 miles on the eliptical and indoor track, very wimpy, I am bummed about the storm and our change of plans. We are bailing out on the half marathon and flying to California for a week. I can't believe more of you aren't bailing, it sounds like the storm is going to be really bad down south. Drive safe everyone and I will be anxious to read your race report while sitting on my lounge chair on the beach.
