5:30 am - 18 very exhausting miles out to Copperton and back. The initial plan was to run out to Copperton and then turn around and finish off with the first 10 miles of the South Jordan Marathon that would net a total of 20 miles. Well my ambition exceeded my abilities and after about 12 miles I decided to cut it short and head straight home. I would imagine that I am still feeling Ogden a bit and the low sleep Thursday didn't help. On a positive note I did get to run a mile with Kelli and Scott and as I headed west along 118th the was a beautiful rainbow at about 6:00 am.

I'm still here. I have gotten really bad at blogging and now I am way behind. Thanks for the wake-me-up. I will get back on track this next week.
