I went to Lehi with Misty and ran 8 miles starting at 7 am. I met back at the parking lot with Kelli, Mark(Huans), Liz, Christine (Misfit), Scott and Suzanne (Smooth). It was nice getting to finally meet them. I ran with Mark for about a mile and we ended up a bit by ourselves. We waited and then Scott grabbed me and I ran with Scott for 9 miles. On my 18th and 19th mile I tried doing a tempo pace and I ran a 5:58 for 18 in a headwind and 5:38 on mile 19 with a tailwind.  My pace overall was in the 7-low 8 range.

Nice run, good fast finish. It will pay off at Boston!

Was nice to finally chat with you some. Didnt want to leave the 2 others that I came without knowing where they were going. Sounds like you guys found Misty in the end. Maybe next time we can hit a few more miles together. It was great to finally really put a face to the name.

From Kelli on Sat, Mar 07, 2009 at 16:47:57 from 71.219.75.10

Sorry about all of the confusion today! I feel bad that Misty ran all by herself the entire time. We must have just barely missed her as we got there. Dang it! I hope she will trust me and try it again another time!

Nice meeting you today Walter :)

From Walter on Mon, Mar 09, 2009 at 00:38:16 from 76.27.13.75

Jeff, I dont know if im going to Boston right now. With the way work has been, Im doomed for a commitment.

Mark, Likewise! You and I were chatting away and we were lulled into a faster pace there! haha Hope to run with you all more.

K-dawg, no problem. She must have just crossed the road before you guys parked. too bad.

Christine, or christy im not sure, It was nice meeting you also! So your dating Mark and Liz just needs to get on here right!? haha I like that trail. Its always good to go to a different location. It makes the miles go by quicker for me. Plus talking to Mark and making him dissapear from you. Sorry.

Hope you can make Boston! Life sometimes gets busy and making a living takes a priority (at least you are busy!).

LOL oh I wasnt to concerned about losing Kristi. It was more of losing Liz. Kristi is right on with her training. Liz is struggling more. Was a great run though. I did enjoy our pace alot more.

From Bec on Mon, Mar 09, 2009 at 17:36:48 from 205.123.38.62

Nice long run. I'm sad I didn't make it. Wish I could have met you and Misty. Another day I guess. I date TM on a regular basis. Lame.

From Walter on Mon, Mar 09, 2009 at 20:03:43 from 76.27.13.75

Jeff, I have free room and board there in Boston and a free flight. the only thing that is keeping me is taking work off. Everyday I miss work, I will be one day behind on bills. It sucks right now. I will try because I want to party this time. I was by myself last year.

Mark, ok so its Kristi. I couldnt remember for certain. Yeah, you guys are great to run with!

Bec, I think your spending a little too much time with TM. Im jealous! haha So I guess we just cant schedule our long runs the same time huh? Dont worry, plenty of days left in the year. It was fun to meet some faces on here.
