Another great quote!! I like that one. Great miles this week, month, year, life! You are an inspiring soul.
So, my 50k got canceled. Now I need to find a new one to run this year. Hmmmm....which to run. It needs to be close becasue we already travel too much for running. Any suggestions?

Which 50k were you planning on running?
I am not too familiar with many 50k's in Utah, but the Antelope Island one looks fun, and the RD, Jim Skaggs, is on the blog at ultrajim.frb.com. It's a little soon (March 28), but when (ballpark) were you planning on running a 50k?
There's also the Sapper Joe 50k on May 23 in Riverton that looks pretty good.
For what it's worth, if I were in the area, I'd probably run both, so they both look pretty good and worth the entry fee.
Hope that helps, and good luck with whichever you choose....

So this means I should stop trying to grow body hair to look like a grizzly bear and move to Alaska instead?

I guess it depends on how hairy you've successfully managed to become...

I am committed to run a Riverton 1/2 on March 28th, so that made the Antelope Island one out. I may look into the Sapper Joe (being that I LIVE in Riverton). I had not heard about that one. I do have the Ogden Marathon sometime in May, but I do not know when!
THANKS for your input. Now, if that one does not work out, are they any others for next fall that you know about (I will travel some, but just can not be gone for more than 2-3 days, I have 5 kids at home to take care of!)

Perhaps the Goblin Valley 50k in October? I don't know much about it, but it appeared to get good reviews.
