Got up this morning and drove up to the start line of the marathon. I got there around 5:45. It was cold! probably around 38-40. Downtown St. George was 49. There was a breeze from the north. I had planned on running a few miles up there but after .40 I decided I could run at home and not be as cold. Glad I went up...will be looking for some arm warmers for the race.

Drove home on the course and visualized the race. I am so excited for the race...the body is feeling good and I feel confident that 3:30 is obtainable!

Good luck to all that are racing!
