I ran my first marathon as a teenager in 1981 with my Dad (The Coronado Marathon). Since then I've run St, George (3x) Utah Valley (3x) Ogden (1 full, 2 halves) Park City (1 x) Boston Marathon (1x) Washington DC (1x) Moab Half Marathon (6x) ,Ye Old Freedom Festival 5 & 10K (a million x) and many others.
But I'm all done with that now. I'm officially a jogger.
Let's just say I just crashed and burned the past 4 days. Utah Valley Marathon, should it be undertaken or finished should be a real adventure.

Yes I got home yesterday afternoon. What were you doing in DC? The 5 miles is fine for the weekday I guess, but I got really sick and didn't think it was a good idea to run. So this is my first run since last Thursday...I should have run a 20 miler on Saturday (training for Utah Valley Marathon).

Your body has the long mileage down. You'll pull through, despite the lack of the 20 on Saturday. Maybe do 18 instead of 16 just to pull it out this Saturday.
Nice work on the 5 miles today, I'm glad you're home safe!

My sister lives there and I had a bit of business on the hill. So it was a bit of work and play. You really can get a lot of excersize just walking the Mall! It was pretty good weather for sightseeing. It was snowing here in Utah while I was there, so the rain we got there on Saturday was no biggie! I love DC, there are so many great things to do there.
