This time change is killing me. I go to bed at 10 pm and I wake up at 7:15. Wondering what the heck happened. I kiss the wife, and pat the children on the head and scramble to work disgusted at my self for not getting up earlier to go running. I went to the gym and ran 3 on the treadmill. .5 mile warm up at 7 min pace. Then picked it up 6:30 min pace half mile. Then ran 6:00 pace another mile. Next .5 picked it up 5.45 pace. Last ¼ mile ran 5:00 pace. After the sun went down I ran another 6 miles listening to my country favorites. I decided to crank it up the last 2 miles to the sounds of AC/DC. Had some slight hip discomfort nothing serious. Legs are sore. But I think this is just normal training pain.

Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.

I ran down the street like a dog with out a leash yesterday. I was tossed to and throw like a feather in the wind. First came the hail then came the rain beating down on my head. I managed 6 miles with out a spill and realized when I was done that luck favors the foolish at times.

Ether 12:27

And if men come unto me I will show unto them their weakness. I give unto men weakness that they may be humble; and my grace is sufficient for all men that humble themselves before me; for if they humble themselves before me, and have faith in me, then will I make weak things become strong unto them.

Ran an easy 7. Was only going to run 3 or 4 miles until I ran into the money train. Found a quarter around mile 4. Then found a dime around mile 5.

ran with Clyde and Dustin. We are getting stoked about Boston. Boston is all we talked about the entire run. talked with Steve before we ran. He has worked hard to be at Boston. But there will be other Boston marathons. and other races as soon as he heals.

Boston is the place where legends are made. Three words every runner lives to say: “I finished Boston” My morning started out taking the subway to the common area to catch the bus to Hopkinton 26.2 miles away. I sat with a veteran marathoner who had run many marathons including Boston many times. He was a very knowledgeable fellow who seemed amused with my child like questions about our 26.2 miles journey we were about to embark on. As we arrived into Hopkinton a small woodsy town with tree’s lined up on both sides of the road. The sheer mass of 20,000 runners packed on the green field was astounding. They separated us into two waves. I met up with Dustin and Clyde and Logan fielding another st.george runner. Lines packed 100-200 deep on the porta potties. Seemed like the time went by real fast. 11:30 came and we walked at a steady pace to our starting positions. I wanted to stay with my group most of the 26.2 miles. The crowds massed on both sides of the street cheering us along every step of the way. They say over half million people lined the streets this day to cheer us down the road. Children lined up to get a simple high five from the runners. Sometime 7 to 10 deep. The people make you feel like a rock star. Runners who tagged their name on there arms would have their names chanted almost every passing step. I put my sons names on my arms. People on the left were yelling way to go Cody, and on the right way to go Jacob as I passed. The weather was perfect? Partly cloudy. The wind was blowing but it did not appear to affect the runners. In front of me was a mass of runners. Like a stampede of wild animals with no end or beginning in sight. I kept a 3-hour pace up to about the 15th mile. Then things started acting differently, my legs felt weak and the world around me started spinning. I had to slow down. But I managed to hold on to the finish. Boston is the ultimate marathon experience. Some day I will go back and run a better race. For now. I will cherish the memories and experience gained long after my running legs have give out.
