13 miles (AP 7:37) with Becky on the last half of the SGM course.

I have done practically no downhill running since Boston. It was evident today. Only a few miles into it and I started having gut issues. It wasn't horrible, but bad enough that it didn't feel good. I had Mexican food with Shelby at Coyote Charros the day before (as well as had downed a bunch of dark chocolate covered mangos that I bought from Costco). I was definitely feeling it all. BOO! Fortunately Becky's company helped me through and we found an outhouse type facility around the Snow Canyon area for a quick pit stop. Now today (Sunday) my calf muscles are letting me know that I absolutely need to get some downhill work in. A definite wake up call! (I have done occasional hill work but I'm always pushing hard up and jogging back down.)

So happy to have had Becky to push me. :-)

Excellent training diet!

You should have come up and run Jupiter Peak yesterday. Plenty of downhill running to go along with the mountain climbing.

Rob!

Ha!!! I keep saying I am going to *really* start eating better. Yet, I keep saying it!!!! Over and over and over again!!!

I ran Jupiter Peak a couple of years ago and LOVED everything about it (except for the fact that I got lost for a bit). Seriously, you ran it? Headed over to your blog now. :-)

Good job pushing through it Teena. That is so cool that you can now train on the marathon course. You are going to be so ready come race day.

Rhett, I absolutely LOVE St. George! I should probably run the course more often but it is just more convenient to walk out my door and start running! Ha! :-)
