Sad news.... the latest edition of Utah Running is out and, one again, I was not profiled. 

PM: 8.25 excellent running miles in the gully with my former stud runner Garrett Jones ( now 21 years old) who arrived home from his LDS mission in Denmark about 18 hours ago. I hope to write much more about this later.

I'm sorry to hear that Roberto. I'll write a strongly worded letter to the Ed.

Ken ran with you on Saturday. I'm surprised he didn't dedicate the issue to your life, views, and friends. I'll email him too.

I just read your last years Boston Marathon race report to motivate me.

Wasn't that inspiring! I'm glad I could help Rob.

On a more serious note, Bill Rodgers has a new biography out and you can find it at any B&N. Nothing more motivational then Boston Billy.
