I ran 5.5 very easy miles this morning to shake my legs out after Saturday's race and run. With the marathon this weekend, I plan to take it very easy this week. I figure the time for plowing and planting is past. The only hay I'm going to have for this race is what's already in the barn. I only have one regret from Saturday morning's race and subsequent run with Larry for part of the half marathon, that I missed most of the first session of the LDS General Conference, including the sustaining of President Monson as the new prophet and president of the Church. I thoroughly enjoyed the remaining sessions of conference. It's such a blessing to have living prophets and apostles from whom we can receive light and truth and guidance through the adventurous and sometime treacherous journey of mortality. They are such a help to me in my efforts to run the race of life well that I may win the prize of peace and happiness, now and forever.
