I ran the Trails Half Marathon this morning in St. George. This is my first race that I have entered. Overall I felt good about the run. I know that I can do better and hope I can at least hold my pace for the St. george marathon next month. I finished with a 9:01 pace for the race. What a great morning to run!

Just 4 weeks until the marathon........can't wait!

I was just checking out the race reports and ran across your blog. Congrats on the 1st place age division award! I notice you are running your first marathon soon. Is it SGM? I am also running my first marathon. It will be SGM. I'm getting quite excited as I'm sure you are too! Oh, wait, I just read further and see that it is SGM. I also had my question answered of where your picture was taken. Sounds fun to go to Ireland! Again, congrats on the race!

Good race Scott. Keep up the good work and you'll have a great STGM.

Thanks! I know that the time is very slow for many of you but I felt good about it. I know that I can do better and that excites me. The last third of the race was pretty brutal especially for a novice runnner like myself with all of the rolling hills towards the end.
