Nice double!

Thanks Melody. I need to do this more often.

Very nice double buddy. I was asked too, same thing though, don't know how i would make that work. I hope the trail is as good Thursday as it was tonight. See you then!

Nice double Matt. It looks like we had the same day, 10 miles outside early and then five miles on a dreadmill!

It's an honor that they asked you to coach. But yeah that's a huge time commitment.

From Matt Poulsen on Mon, Dec 10, 2012 at 21:29:36 from 98.202.242.213

Dreadmill is right Riley! But at least it did the job for us today. Yeah, a solid double for both of us.

See you Thursday Brandon. I thought they may have asked you too Brandon. You would do an excellent job. But that's definitely a huge time commitment.

Matt, here is the run info Jake posted on Facebook.

Hey guys - great run this past Saturday. For the upcoming week (12/15) we're going to meet at the 6200S park & ride in SLC (north end of the parking area) at 8am. We'll run north on Wasatch and do some variation of the zoo loop, depending on whether the Parley's trail has ice on it. Here's an appromixate map. http://www.mapmyrun.com/routes/view/158582549 It can be modified for any distance you are looking for. Hope to see a lot of you there again.

Thanks Mike!

Hum I am not sure I am head Boys coach material but I would definitely be interested in helping.

From Matt Poulsen on Thu, Dec 13, 2012 at 15:46:58 from 98.202.242.213

Oh you are too Rachelle. The guy to contact about this is Dee Gardner (801) 210-1333.
