Nice Run with Steve, kendrick.    We missed Dave, James and the man in the speedo Clyde who arrived an hour early at the Dixie center.     We took it very easy.  I wanted to us this run to see if i was ready to run the half next week.   I  know know i can run it.  Bu ti am not sure it would be a very good race.     I was pretty tight most of the time.   I am not a very good cold wheather runner. 

I know i couldprobably  skweek in a 130.00  but i do not want to hurt myself doing it.   I do not have a very good base of miles under me at this point.  The last 3 miles i did pick it up 6:15 pace.     ave 7:30 pace over all.

decided i felt a need for some speed today.  Talked to Aaron and Hayden  at the rec center.   Hayden has really let himself go,    He looks like he has gained 30lbs.    He looks sickley.    He said he plans on running the Half.     Not ,any people are going to fear This warrior from the past.  only thing that is not going to blow by him is the wind if itis a calm day saturday.   Man  Arron on the other hand looks primed and ready to go.  If the guy was going to run this race  i think Dave would sell his shorts to win.    I do hear that a mighty group of runners will be there saturday.  

Ran one mile 7:10 pace.   Ran 4 interval  1 miles at 5:27.  Felt ok. But i am way out of shape.

What a sweet day for a Race,   1000 plus came out to run 13.1.  They came to take it out on the trail.  All of them came for different reasons. Some to just run with friends.  Some to claim the 1st [lace prize.   Some to prove to them self that they can run a half Marathon and live to tell about it.  

Today I ran to just enjoy the run.   To have fun.  and to talk to good friends.   and meet new friends.  My time was not imortant.  I wanted to just run around a 7 min pace and take it easy.   I ended up running 132:00       Along the way I talked to several runners and just had fun.   I talked to Amber, Michele, and a few others  befor the race.  Amber is an awesome athlete. She passed me about mile 9   and she motivated me to pick it up a little. 

The  beginning of the race was great.   Clyde  and his mountain bike was ready to rumble.  Logan had his Grandpa's Bike AND I WAS WORRIED HE COULD NOT PETTLE IT FAST ENPUGH.    We had a fast group, Dave Holt, Paul.  and the mighty Hayden!  (wonder boy! ) and  some others.      I maintained a fairly even pace most of the way.  I can tell that i am very much out of shape.  Miles 6-10 were the hardest on this race, Mostly because of my conditioning.  Some of the trail slippery.

Hey Wild Bull,

Great Race!! Good Job . . . I know you were taking it easy, but it was a push for me. I'm not sore though, so that tells me I could and should have pushed harder. . . Oh well, it was a pretty day and a fun race! Thanks for passing me at the end cause you really pulled me through. I just kept telling myself, "stay behind Bill, stay behind Bill" even though I fell a ways back at least I could still see you:) You're a great runner!

From Dustin on Sun, Jan 18, 2009 at 18:48:54

From Wildbull on Thu, Jan 22, 2009 at 11:19:33

I think i will do the Dam to Dam also. It is a fun race. And it is only 5 miles. I usually run the course twice to get my miles in. It will be fun to see you there.

Hey Bill, I got signed up for Ogden yesterday, so now it is full steam ahead with my training. I plan to start increasing the miles gradually. I'll try to work up to 50-60 miles a week over the next month. Then I think if I can have a really good March and April I should be ready for a decent marathon. I'm thinking more about the Grand Slam and probably not going to do a big marathon like Chicago or New York this year.

Glad you could get a run in with Cody. Hey TylerS from Spanish Fork would like to come down and do the Lake to Lake Relay. I said we would probably be trying to form a team. Any ideas on who might like to do it?

From Dustin on Tue, Feb 03, 2009 at 11:00:36

I also told him we would try to be pretty competitive, but also have a good time.

From wildbull on Tue, Feb 03, 2009 at 11:15:23

I talked to steve about it. He was all for it. I think he would sponsor us. I talked to him about two teams.

is it ten guys per team?

if so lets start oragnizing it.

1st team.

and 2 team.

From wildbull on Tue, Feb 03, 2009 at 11:20:25

Teams: Teams will consist of 5 people (Open Men, Open Women and Mixed) with each individual completing a minimum of two legs (roughly 5 miles each) of the relay. For the mixed division you need at leaast 2 of either sex. Less then 2 will place you in the open mens division.

Awards will be to the top 10 teams in each division and each team will recieve a special award for finishing.

From wildbull on Tue, Feb 03, 2009 at 11:39:57

We coud be on the second team. Dustin, James, Tyler, Bill,I would love to have Aaron? Or Steve O. Austin?

From Dustin on Tue, Feb 03, 2009 at 11:53:32

Was Hooper going to be with us also? Also did you get signed up for Ogden?

From Dustin on Tue, Feb 03, 2009 at 12:03:27

How about Dave, Clyde and Logan did they express any interest in running it? I'm not sure if those high school kids will be in season then or have a meet (Austin, Hayden) or if that would be too much racing close to their season?

Amber showed up a little late. But after she arrived we took off.    After the work out we did some core exercises.     Woman always seems to be stronger in this area.  Or I just might be a wimp.      At any rate I can see I need to do some work in this area.  The mirror never lies!  It is a terrifying site

Ran 4 more with Cody tonight.   Nice and Easy is beginning to be my theme.

Can you say pain!    Can you feel pain!    We met up at Clydes at 6:30  am.  Steve, Greg.Dave, Austin, and one other man his name escapes me at the moment.   We pushed our way up Ice Box  Trail.      And up into no mans land.     I fell 5 times and chewed up my shoes pretty good.   Finally cought clyde up at the top  and i decided that threre was no way i was going back down  that trail i came up on.   So i pushed over the top and got lost in a hail storm.    It took me quite a while to find the trail again after jumping sage brush for about a half hour.      I   was glad i made it back to Clydes house alive.     Clyde was just about to take my car to Mesquite for lunch when i got back to his house.      Greg looked like he got shot at a few times.     More scares from ice the ice box trail. I am  glad to get this on done and live to tell about it.

you guys should look into some helmets and body armor if you are going to do that kind of a run again. was it just a bad trail or too dark to see.

it was pretty dark at first. But it was not to bad by the time we hit the bad stuff. Jagged volcanic rock all the way up the trail.

Dustin, I think you would of made a sailor blush if you would of came with us this morning.

Don't worry about the cougars in the desert, cause my husband and his hunting gang didn't find any to hunt! I hope they'd be scared of us anyway, but I do get a little nervous running up Snow Canyon somedays, , , I just talk really loud, it's enough to scare anything away :) good miles this week, are you doing the spectrum? I need to sign up so I feel that push of motivation. I think I decided to do the Utah Grand Slam, have you done that before?

Hey Bill, Bull, Wildbull, Trashtalker, Great Runner, . . . so many Alias'. (is that how you spell Alias?) You should do the grand-slam! (4 marathons: Ogden, Utah Valley, Park City, Logan if you don't do Ogden, and St.George) I decided to go for it. I signed up for Ogden last night, registration is full, but if you are a Zions bank customer they have 100 spots left, you just enter "zbogden" in the password section. Are you still doing the Lake to Lake relay?

From Lybi on Mon, Feb 23, 2009 at 22:55:54 from 70.190.199.29

I was thinking about the following leg assignments

1/6- Bill

2/7- Nate

3/8- Hayden

4/9- Dustin

5/10-James

Any thoughts?

From wildbull on Mon, Mar 02, 2009 at 15:52:53 from 204.113.19.10

Glad your thinking about it Dustin.

I think You and Hayden are the quickest runners on our team. I was wondering if we should use Hayden the last Leg. But this works.

From Dustin on Mon, Mar 02, 2009 at 16:17:47 from 204.113.48.69

Legs 5 and 10 are the longest, so that might be something to consider for Hayden. Legs 8 and 9 have the most uphill and are rated the most difficult. I thought it would be fun to watch you start off, since you get so excited at the beginning of races.

From TylerS on Mon, Mar 02, 2009 at 16:59:03 from 66.29.160.130

You guys should do great! I will be in St. George March 18th (that night) - March 22nd. I would love to hook up and run as much as I could with you guys. I know that you do a club run on Thursday's? And then maybe a long run on Saturday? Let me know and good luck this weekend.

From JamesH on Mon, Mar 02, 2009 at 22:41:07 from 75.169.141.57

Im up for anything. I wouldnt mind running 5/10 but we need Hayden where he'll do the most good. If you think it would be better for him to do 5/10 and me to do 3/8 thats cool too.

From Superfly on Mon, Mar 02, 2009 at 23:12:50 from 209.33.210.52

Today was the first annual lake to lake relay in  Saint George.      Hayden, Dustin James and my self set a course record!   (Ok it was the first one!)   We met up at the store and then went and got our Ace in the hole (Hayden)     (Bless you my child)   I was voted to run the first leg.   6.07 miles of nice road.    This was the longest leg but it was one of the easier ones.     I managed to hold on to 3 overall  and then” Nate the Great” took over leg two.  He ran his heart out.  He looked like man running in the  Olympics.   Then came Dustin who looked like a man possessed.  A man  who looked like he  was running from the IRS?    Then came James who just about missed the dinner bell. But made it up with his "Handsomeness"   Dustin was nice enough to give him his sweaty soiled stinky shirt!  With only one small request in exchange  "that he not sweat in it!"    We were in second place at this time behind  the Decker Clan "the Beast" and the brother of the Beast,  and his father.  and two other young guns that can fly.   Hayden our Ace put us in first place after his leg.  We  pretty much held on from there.   Opps the Wild bull did let the other team catch him at the end of his leg 6.  But "Nate the great"    soon corrected this and The rest is History.  Hayden ran the final leg into victory .  The Saint George Running team is deep in talent and guts.     Thanks to my team.  Thanks for all the support. And thanks to the Saint George Running store for sponering us.

You're a great runner, , , someday I might have to just pass you :) just kidding, not if you keep getting faster! Plus, these last two races you say have been your "easy" races! Anyway, good job!

Nice miles this afternoon.  I decided to try and change up my running schedule  and run during my lunch hour.    It is so nice in Saint George I have to ask my self if this is Heaven?    Then around mile 6 I crashed landed when my left calf  started Cramping.    I pulled through.  Bad choice of words....... I ran through it and made it back to the Rec Center and took a quick Shower.   I Will Run a few more tonight!

I set my Alarm for 5:30 Am to meet up with Sweet Angela. "it's not about the Bike" It was difficult to get up but it was well worth the trip to the Recreation center. I was going to do some speed work last night but decided to let the calf take a break. It did not bother me, However hammies were very tight the whole run.

7 decent miles tonight.  a  warm night it was

We will call todays run "Return to Dead Cow Mountain"   James. Tyler, and my self started out early to see if we could hook up with Steve and mighty Dave.  About 3 miles into it we could see their Head Lamps.  Like  Twin beacons  in the dark.    We met up and passed like strangers in the night.    Steve said you guys are looking good.  In the Dark when you can't see 2 feet in the front of you "I am looking good."  We fought our way up to the Mighty Beast that gave up the ghost.   It still stinks.  And the "utter disrtuction" is remarkable. :)    We finally made  it back to the cars,   and after about 15 min I decided to go find the ultra Men, (Steve and Dave.)      I passed Dave   and continud up the road to find Steve.   I must of took the wrong Road because it seemed like I ran forever.     Finally I stopped and turned around and headed back.   The news here is that Dave  Ran this course 3 X  at 14 a loop you do the math.  The man is a magic man. I had a nice week of running.  Next week I will do some speed work.

Glad you got out today - sorry we missed you at the start (I got us started just a little late, and the loop took longer than I thought). On the third pass that cow was hideous - a million flies were buzzing all over it. I covered my nose and mouth and fartleked it out of there!

Today was very nice. Decided to go out and run in the desert.   Ran up and through Mustang pass trail.   The Desert flowers are blooming  (yellow and purple all over.)   Trail has awesome boulders that stand out in the middle of a field.    Wide open spaces. Inspiring red mountains with pine mountin in the background.     Amazing Run.  Makes me grateful that I am able to get out and enjoy this eye-popping creation.     Later I went to see Hayden Run the mile. He ran a smart Race  4:22.    The kid can just fly.

THanks for the invite for the 20 miler, we were out of town, but what were your last miles paces' again? um, , in the 5's and 6's? Um, , ya, not really what i call an "Easy" 20 miler. You're funny :) everyone always says how you pick it up to blazing speeds towards the end of your runs! I'll remember that if I ever run with you guys so I can park my car close by! lol , , ,

I'm also bummed about the pies in Veyo, sad little town now with no pies! Try a cookie from Dutchman's market . . .you won't even miss pies after that! Plus they probably have just as much fat and calories :)

Have a great week

Tonights run felt like every step counted.  The Body was just not into it. the mind just did not want to stick with it.  Seemed like it took forever!  I thought of Marci for inspiration.  If she can run 2 for 1 every day then i can run  with not many excuses.  No wimps allowed.  My days at work are long.   There are so many out of work.  So many who are trying to hang on.    I  am greatful I have employment. However, working 14 hours a day and  running 70 plus miles a week  is tough.    oh yea  I almost forgot    It is Taco Tuesday at Del Taco!!!  through the lips, through the Gums, look out stomach here it comes. :)

Ran around the Sand hollow Resavior with Dustin and little budda. Nice conversation. He took it easy on me today. Got home and took a shower and watched conference. There were some nice talks about staying the course in good times and bad. The rightous as well as the unrightous will come upon trials. Having a firm foundation will keep us on the right path. However, my foot is killing me! and I am not sure it will endure another mile?

I wanted to get 70 miles this week. But the body and the will or drive was not in the cards. I will go down to about 50 next week and get a little extra rest.

You inspire me. I was the same way, wanting 70 this week and then start tappering next week. Well, 65 close enough....40 next week then ease off for Salt Lake and hope for weather like today without wind.

Work on your foundation...and staying the course!

Nice miles with Mike (Big Foot) I was doing great until I tripped.  Lucky for me my face took most of the impact!    The blood was flowing! My kegs and arms were all scraped up.  Mike could not stop laughing!   I guess this is why i do not like running in the morning.    I was glad to get the miles in..  Pain is temporary, chicks dig scars and glory last forever!    I should call these hard miles.

Ran 5 more Miles with Bear. very nice run with the moon out bright. Nice and warm. No face plants this time!

Craziest thing, Bull gets kicked by a mule he goes cross eyed. Bull takes a spill while running, eyes go back to normal. I guess the fall was for the best lol! Hey, really thanks for the run today and being so kind to slow the pace up for me. By the way I was not laughing, but gasping for air.

Big day yesterday, and another long run this morning. However, under your short term running goals you have stated you will "continue to let my running buddies beat the tar out of my body" I don't think we'll need to do much, if you continue tripping.

From lysa on Tue, Apr 07, 2009 at 11:42:01 from 76.23.52.240

i have a friend who thinks its hillarious when i fall too. kind of want to get them back somehow huh??

From Amber on Tue, Apr 07, 2009 at 18:24:29 from 64.255.88.143

Oh man. . . . sorry about the fall! You may want to take a look at your short term goals "stay injury free" and focus a little more :) hee hee, , , no, I'm not laughing! Who knew running was so dangerous? but hey, you're right, no injury to the legs so you still came out victorious! Be careful out there.

Oh, I'm not running the "run for kids" this weekend, I was planning on it and then waited too long to sign up and don't want to pay the extra sign up fee. I'm gonna run my own 'mock race' on the treadmill . . . oh fun! j/k

How bout you? They may need to keep your disclaimer sheet on top of the stack . . . :)

What are your plans for Saturday? Do you want to meet up an hour or so before the race and run the course once to get in some extra miles or are you going to do just a short warm-up and really push it in the race?

I might run over to the race from La Verkin about 12 miles, then try running the race on tired legs. Probably won't run a very fast time in the race, but should be a good test for the legs and preparation for running hard when tired, which might help with the marathon in a few weeks.

Bad news.  I may have a stress fracture in my left foot.    I went and got MRI and i will not know until then.   After the Race saturday my left foot selled up and did not go down.  I hope it is nothing. But if it is Ogden is probably out the window.  I am vey sad!  So i need some cheer leaders out there to get me through this.

it is offical no Stress fracture!! yea!! My second toe at the joint is moving to much. causes alot of pain and iflamation. The doctor showed me how to tape it, and we hope it heals by itself. If it does not we may need an operation. Or just cut it off i say! Who needs that toe anyway! plan on taking off running until saturday. Then start the routine again.

nice miles in the warm spring air under the desert stars.  Ran easy with Cody.  He kept me calm.   I could tell that i was a little rusty.  no runnning last week  got my body into hybernation. I should of done more cross training.  Tomorrow will run with  The other corner of the Bermuda triangle.   We are just waiting for Marci to come out and play.

P.S.  I watched the entire Marathon today.  It  was so awesome to see both men and woman Americans make it to the top 3.  WOW!   I think Ryan Would of hhad a better shot if he would of drafted instead of staying in the lead the first 13.  But who am i to say.  The man can just fly.  He moves with ease.  It was also awesome to see the  man I grew up with Bill Rodgers,  He can still  Run.

Another painful day with Mike.   Not feeling very well at all this morning.  I was glad to get out.  I am not use to running in the morning, but I know it is something I got to start doing because it is getting hot down here in Dixie.   I was really tight this entire run then around mile 6 I had to stop and stretch.  Then around Mile 8.5 my body simply said you’re done.  I could hardly walk!   Mike Ran back to the truck and came back to pick me up.    I did not eat very well yesterday.  Not sure what is going on.    I think it will take me a week to get back into my routine.  Plus I got to get use to running in the morning again.

Your report today, sounds more like me stopping to stretch and having to walk. Give it a few days and you should bounce back. I'm feeling terrible with allergies and when did the weather decide to just turn right into summer. I would still prefer the mid 70's. 90 yesterday was a little warm for April.

From wildbull on Tue, Apr 21, 2009 at 10:14:45 from 168.179.180.160

From superfly on Tue, Apr 21, 2009 at 10:28:02 from 209.33.210.52

Good to hear you back at it Bull. I've been meaning to have a talk with you about pace on regular training runs.... It's important so take it easy (no faster than 8-7:30 pace on all of your runs unless you plan a specific speed workout). I'll tell you more in person but I really think your body will respond better to something like this.

From Wildbull on Tue, Apr 21, 2009 at 11:15:48 from 168.179.180.160

But that is so stinking slow! :) :) I wi fall asleep if i don't get my heart rate above 47. I think you are right Clyde. I will work on it. I am sure the peope i run with will appreciate if i take your adise to.

From scotthughes on Tue, Apr 21, 2009 at 12:35:11 from 209.33.211.3

Great point Clyde! I have been struggling with pace. Salt Lake taught me a valuable lesson....don't go out too fast. I felt great with the pace and didn't feel like I was pushing it...I was.

My training most of the time is the same way. I need to slow down and allow the body to get in a flow, enjoy it more.

Bill, great to see you are running again! Come back slow and strong!

From Mike Warren on Tue, Apr 21, 2009 at 12:59:58 from 207.50.149.221

Bull, thanks for the run today hope your feeling a little better. I ran in pain for the last year and a half no fun! I know you guys have a ton more knowledge and experience than me, but I do agree with Clyde. I have been back for a little over a month now, only ran fast twice really building a base this time. I feel so much better and to be honest with you, the fast runs I did do were awesome. My body was rested and I was very surprised about the pace I was able to hold. I guess for me, if I race everyday I cant race on race day.

Anyway, you are one awesome, fast, beast of a runner! Just stay healthy and your PRs will fall just like you did last time we ran LOL!

From Dustin on Tue, Apr 21, 2009 at 13:11:53 from 204.113.48.69

I'll second Clyde's comments. Make your easy days easy and your hard days hard. Most of my runs are right around 7:30 to 8:00 min pace average. Only on tempo runs and interval repeats do I really drop the pace. Just listen your body and not feel like you have to hit a certain mileage each week. I know that is something I've struggled with in the past.

From WildBull on Tue, Apr 21, 2009 at 13:55:46 from 168.179.180.160

Thank you for all your advice. I will keep it down. And just plan on speed on a couple days a week.

Nice miles in the heat with the guys. I would like to say this was easy. the pace was easy but the temps today were pretty hot.  over 93 degrees.  Dustin,james,clyde,and aaron, jeff?  took the usual course.  The guys really put the hammer down on me and told me to SLOW DOWN.   This was a tough run in the sun.  Had a good time drafting off of clyde and Aaron.

Went to the church to  meet a couple of guys to run an easy 20.   Only one showed up.  He only ran 15.    it was a nice morning.   Temps were a little cooler but i had to deal with a head wind the entire way.   Just ran a pretty even pace.  except for the last 4  where i picked it up a little.   Legs are very sore. Quads were sore before i started.  I was glad to get this run in even thow it was not one  of my best work outs.    avg pace 7:20      Ran by Steve Olsens wife.   As soon as i came upon her she identified her self as his wife!  we talked for about 1/2 mile then i moved on.  she is a very nice person.  I am not sure why i am so sore. Something must be going on with the body!

From Amber on Wed, Apr 29, 2009 at 16:51:13 from 64.255.88.143

Are you running Hurricane? I'm assuming so! Good Luck! All this talk of burritos, let me tell you, go to Alberto's for a breakfast burrito. I know it sounds getto but they are the bEST!! Egg and potato, but my hubby loves the ham and egg. But whatever you do, don't eat it right before your Hurricane race ! :)

You've almost run 1,000 miles already this year----WOW

I jogged the Hurricane half this morning!  What a nice day.    Over cast.  almost perfect for racing.  My toe did not like it much.      I did not get what i wanted  out of this race. But it went ok .    Mile 1 was very comfortable 6:15  pace.   I Nothing fast just calm.   mile 3-6 was a struggle.   7-10  was ok. 11-13 was a walk in the park.

Next time i will ware some different  shoes.  and shave my head.  and my legs for Mike!

Keep workin it Bill. Are you still planning on running Ogden? I know what you mean as far as the toes. I have been ailing with toe pain and swelling the past week and a half. I am thinking that I have it all figured out. Nothing broken just the toes next to the big toe on both feet had been jambed or twisted. I had a chiropractor work on them Friday and that made a great differance. At least the swelling is down most of the way. The pain is minor but still bugs me at times when running.

From Dustin on Sat, May 02, 2009 at 21:37:22 from 209.33.192.10

Good job Bill, and thanks for taking it easy on me on the run back to La Verkin.

From Mike Warren on Sat, May 02, 2009 at 22:52:37 from 74.211.7.227

Bull, shave the head Bro! Hey, good race and you were smart to hold back. You have bigger fish to fry at Odgen. By the way, very respectable with a 2nd in age group and 18 overall. Hold that shaven head high.

From Nate on Sat, May 02, 2009 at 23:33:02 from 74.211.29.3

You crack me up! I have your medal, and it is bigger than mine!

From JamesH on Sat, May 02, 2009 at 23:50:33 from 75.169.137.248

Good work Bill. Take it easy on that toe so you can kick some booty at Ogden. You could lose 5-6 lbs if you shaved those legs. :)

From JeffG on Sun, May 03, 2009 at 00:44:34 from 64.255.92.146

Nice run today Bill. Thanks for the draft on the first few miles. I need to learn to "jog" as fast as you.

From TylerS on Sun, May 03, 2009 at 10:13:57 from 66.119.143.249

Bill I would wax those legs! I think that you would get a better and faster finish at Ogden! I would keep the mustache for sure. The ladies love it! It was nice to meet your son today. See you in 2 weeks at Ogden!

From Mike Warren on Tue, May 05, 2009 at 10:56:37 from 74.211.7.227

Clydes advice to me, your not a runner, do not even attempt Ogden and take up a new sport. Bull, thanks for another great run. you were looking pretty darn smooth,auto pilot even.

From Superfly on Tue, May 05, 2009 at 22:50:10 from 209.33.210.52

Bill, I will be looking for you in Ogden.You better wear your goggles, don't want you to get the bugs in your eyes as you are speeding down the course! I only hope that you are not showered, cleaned up and on the road back home before I complete the race.....Good luck to all the St. George runners this weekend!!!

The Great Ogden Report

 

May 15th   we arrived in Ogden about 8:30 pm.    Dustin the guy I went with is ready to go to bed!     I want to hit the Hot Tub and check out the party.      Ogden is an interesting town.   Not the kinds of place you want get lost in.  There are a lot of gangs and people looking for that special person to pay for their room for a night if you know what I mean! 

 Saturday 4 am came really quick.   But I was prepared.  Got on my special Race shorts that show a little leg.  (Got to show off for the camera)   most marathons give all the runners a timing chip.    However, this chip was almost as big as my wallet.  And I had to strap it on to my Ankle.    Felt like I just got out of jail and I had to ware an ankle locator.    

 We got on the Bus about 4:45 and off we went up the canyon 26.2 miles away from the finish line!   (My garmin said it was 26.8 miles how dare they make it .5 longer!) 

 When we arrived we were 1.5 hours before the start.    3000 runners all staring at each other in some farmer’s field!   And 50 Porte potties to share.      I ask myself why am I here?  I could be home sleeping!  .   The temp is about 40 degrees but the fire barrel is sending out terrific heat. 

Finally the guy on the Mega phone tells us to get to the starting line.   The race will start in 5 min.  

 The Best of the Best start at the front.    I am not the Best of the Best.  But I am better then the guy in the clown suit next to me. (I hope)    It would not be good if some clown beat me!    I see Amber. She looks like she is ready to rock and roll.   I hope we can run together pass some of the long miles.

 Bam the gun goes off and stangers are waiving me on!   

Mile

1 6:29 pace.  Feeling good and running beside Dustin and trying to keep the clown behind me. 

2. 6.29 pace.  (I have not been chicked yet,  so I am  feeling good!) 

3. 6.29 again.   Here comes the chick!  Dustin asks if I am feeling good.  (I tell him to pass the syrup for my pancakes)

4. 6:28   Sill feeling good.  Only 21 miles to go!  Keeping the chick by my side. (I tell her she looks tired!) 

  1. 6.26 feeling great. 20 miles to go!!  Woo hoo.  
  2. 6:38 still feeling good.  Looking at the mountains. And wondering what is for lunch?
  3. 6:39  feeling good Still.  19 more to go. 
  4. 6:52 slight hill this mile! (Looking for an oxygen tank. At the Aide station.) 
  5. 6:59  (I should of just ran the half   what was I thinking?) 
  6. 7:13 is there a Rest stop somewhere?
  7. 7:14 flat land (Is this Ohio?)    (I wish I could tap my Red shoes and be in ohio!)
  8. 7:08   I might of went out to fast!  
  9. 7:16 Eden    a small town.  Sign say’s welcome to Eden  (13 miles to hell!) 
  10. 7.15   Running around pine view Reservoir. I should have brought my fishing pole!)
  11. 7:40 small hill here.   I hope it is not hunting season I forgot my orange!
  12. 7:31 I think I went out to fast.   Slowing down. 
  13. 7:27 water tastes like they got it from the lake!   Yuck!!
  14. 7:05 Hey where is the finish line! 
  15. 7:21 I should be running faster it is down hill.   The legs want to leave me!  They are tired of supporting my fat butt!
  16. 7:26   not looking pretty!    Woman scream, babies cry and grown men groan as I pass by them! 
  17. 5 miles to go.   Legs are gone.   But if I stop I will pass out.
  18. Keep thinking I will make it, don’t stop.
  19. Getting into town Yea.   Running past walkers and lots of half marathoners
  20. Passing High River.   I think I should jump in!   I winder if it goes by the finish line. 
  21. Sasha   gives me some encouragement and tells me to keep going. 
  22. The crowd screams, People clap as I make to the finish line.    Where is the med tent!     Where is the ice cream!

From scotthughes on Mon, May 18, 2009 at 19:57:11 from 209.33.211.3

Billy my man, Great race! When you were sprinting out at the start I was standing still in the mob. I made the mistake of starting in the correct area for my pace (8:00) but when I went across the starting line we were all walking still.....1/4 mile in and we are jogging at 10:00+ pace, nothing to do but hope it thins out soon. By the time it thinned out you were looking at Pineview, throwing in a line and munching on a burger. I actually enjoyed the lake water at the aid stations, they didn't want to over burden the water supply in Eden. I just want to know one thing, did you bounce down the road with the secret weapons? I didn't notice any parts on the road...just a lot of roadkill. I especially liked the dead deer as we jumped off the bus....was that your breakfast?

Interesting read Bill. I knew I could count on you for some entertainment tonight. Who needs dish?

Good job man. I think that may be one of the best races you've ever run and you don't know it. With a solid finish like that under your belt early in the year your well on your way to getting the 3 hour monkey off your back for good this year at STG.

From Amber on Tue, May 19, 2009 at 00:27:26 from 64.255.88.143

Hey Bill,

It's always a good time to read your race reports!!! :) Even your day to day reports for that matter . . . but GREAT race! Good job. I so wish I could have had it in me to keep up with you, but when you said you were going to keep it in the 6:45's I thought, , oh man, c-ya later! I knew you could keep it real out there, even w/ the gross water! It was awful! You'll get your 2:50 at SG for sure! Cause we have awesome water, no really there is just nothing like the SG marathon I've decided. We are lucky! Plus our timing chips don't weigh us down! :) Are you doing the Utah Valley marathon? Bryce?

From leslie on Tue, May 19, 2009 at 10:30:52 from 76.23.61.78

From Dustin on Tue, May 19, 2009 at 13:33:47 from 205.126.78.217

Nice write up Bill. I just can't believe you didn't mention how much fun we had driving up there and how I'm a master at Jeopardy. Sorry there were no rockin' parties at the Days Inn, sometimes you get what you pay for.

On to the race, I guess you were really doing a lot of thinking during this marathon to remember so many details.

I agree with Clyde this was a good race for you, especially with the foot issue. You are right you might have went out a bit fast, but that is sometimes hard to gage when you've never ran the full course before. I thought I was being really conservative in the beginning and still ended up running the second half quite a bit slower than I wanted to.

Get that foot healed up and get ready for a long, hot summer of training. Should be fun!

From dave holt on Tue, May 19, 2009 at 14:01:53 from 204.113.55.41

Only the World Famous Bull, could write a report like that! When we were talking after the race, I told you no one leaves it out there like you. You run to run period. You just have to respect a Animal like that. By the way, very good race! Unfinished business to be taken care of at STG. Looking forward to getting back after it with you, Yeeehaaaw!!

From JamesH on Wed, May 20, 2009 at 11:49:43 from 64.255.89.16

Oh Bill, what would we do without your daily/race reports? You ran a good race even with the tasty lake water weighing your stomach down. Get that foot healed so we can be graced by your aura this summer.

PS. I saw you eyeing those two good looking ladies in the hot tub at the motel. You do realize that Im married to one of them and the other is my daughter. :)

A new day a new instructor named Amber! She must have been madder then a wet hen. And must have been wearing cactus britches this morning because she let us have it. Two Spinners fainted. The rest faded but the Wild Bull accelerated and left her frustrated. I feel exhilarated.

she told a real bad  joke.   i will share with my friends.    Why don't men get swine flu?  

 

Because they are pigs any way!       boo     boo    boo

Easy miles with the guys..  clyde, a new guy named James, Steve, and ken carlson.   We met at  Big foots home and his  wife  was  kind to give us a ride up to utah hill.    As steve the shoe  guy arrived  fashionably late he  chucked mikes shoes out the window  of his car,  like they were Nikes or something.   He is  so funny.  Mike  made Steve tie his shoes laces.  LOL.   When we arrived on top of utah Hill. I think Ken was thinking  we were just going to run 6 miles.   He took of at 6 min pace.  Ken is a master runner with more talent in his  broken toe then i have in my whole  body.   But the Bull was in no mood to let him go on his  journey by him self so i went with him. We pretty much maintained a my race pace for 10 k    and we both new the race was over at 10 k.   But we had 8 more miles to go!!!   We pretty much shut it down and kept the pace around 7 min pace the rest of the way.    What i nice day for a run. over cast. a little muggy but ok. Big foot  was amazing. He had a  great day after hammering out  80 miles this  week!

Bull, great job getting back after it. By the way, your 6 min pace on Sat was no 6 min pace, try low to mid 5's! No wonder your sore. At one point I was going to try and catch up. After doing a half mile at 5:30 and not gaining an inch, I said bag this. Holy crap, you are one FAST dude!

I met up with Big foot at 5 am at the rec center.  it was a dark morning  and nothing was alive except for Big foot and his hairy legs.    as usual we took it pretty easy  the first 3 miles.

then we started our tempo  1.6:13  2. 6.35 3. 6.36  4.6.29. At mile 2,  I looked back and Big foot and his hairy legs was breathing fire down my neck.  The guy is just getting faster all the time.  Next week he said he is going to wear his hocky mask ! Who does that remind u of?

We will call this an easy run.   the hardest part of this run was getting up at 4:30  and meeting the guys at Dave's home at 5 am.    James and a new guy named Nate Showed up. " Nate the great!"  When he took his shirt off i can see where he got his nick name!!!     i appreciate running with these fine tuned athletes it is a great honor!!!    We ran around quail resavior.

Good job Bull. My alarm went off at 4:30, then I got up went the bathroom and decided I would benefit more from a few more hours of sleep and probably less miles. It is now 9:30 and I'm going to go and do 9 miles, that will put me at 40 for the week, so kind of low, but not terrible for being on vacation. Hope to get back on schedule next week. I really need to have a good weeks in July, August, and the first part of September.

From JamesH on Sat, Jun 27, 2009 at 13:53:54 from 209.33.214.26

Good run this morning Billy. Your did get some faster running in but it was all that slowing down and waiting for me to catch up that turned it into an easy run. Easy for you, not so much for me.

From Mike Warren on Sat, Jun 27, 2009 at 19:11:12 from 208.117.124.133

Bull, nice week! By the way, no such thing as an easy run with the WILD BULL! Not buying it, lol.

We  ran the annual Steven Abraham Lincoln Hooper memorial Fun run!    What a challenge.  Every year it gets bigger!!   The competition is getting so good!!     I woke up at 3:30 AM  and drove over to where  the old store use to be.  (now it just a shell with no magic inside!)   Steve and  James, and Dave and Mrs Hooper!   and several other girls!     And a tough as Nails Marine named Kam. We drove up to the enterprise Resouviors  and started our journey. Kam held true to his  marine past  and started his death march roll by screaming "move it girly's ur looking kind of limp!!"  He was pushing the pace the whole way.    Around mile six  my stomach began to revolt and i left a few momories  up in them there hills.   After throwing up a few times i was just fine.    We ran into a few cows along the way and a few campers.   The pace was tough up the hills.   i crawled up each one  and i  kept telling my self "make it worth it i got up to earrly not push my wat through the hills"   These hills should be called widow makers.  this is a nice run the awards are so awesome  at the end wee jump into a cool stream andd soak.

Big foot must have been in the area. I saw him running monday moprning and only saw 2 rabbits when I ran the same area. The next day I saw 40 or more in the same area. Big foot scares the wildlife out of the area....Then there is Wild Bull!

We had a great group of people.  some of them ran 13 .  We droped off the first group and the brave ones. Dave, James, Mike, and me and a guy from cedar went up to Veyo!!     We  had alot of fun coming down, and the guys made fun of my new found friend!    "so what if she is an air head"       We picked up the pace a few times wich felt pretty good.   Dave kept me in check most of the way!   Steve wanted to fly a few times!   Nice run nice effort!   gladd to haave the week done.   i am very tired!

Nice run Bill . . . My husband says if you stay out late you have to pay the fiddler, , ha ha! But, as long as you had popcorn at your movie then it's ok to go to a late show the night before a run! Nice morning huh? We even got sprinkled on a bit - Glad you're keeping the speed rockin, maybe I'll get there someday :)

Come on Bull, your sticking with the Elmer thing. I must admit, after the appoinment today I wouold be Elmer (glue that is) if I were a horse. I have been running in the Clydesdale, hope that don't count. Hey, thanks for all the great runs. Tuesdays will not be the same without chasing the fierce Bull at mach one.

Mike the emphasis should be on sticking. Because that is what glue does.

And why didnt you show up this morning Mr. Bill? Shame on you. Good job on the run anyway.

Good week of running. Thanks for making me get out and do the run

Bull,

Give me a call. I am considering hopping in the St. George Marathon and using it as a training run. Clyde and I would like to pace you to go under 3 hours. Call me soon.

From Bill on Wed, Oct 14, 2009 at 11:29:01 from 168.179.180.160

oh i almost forgot I am a dime richer! Woo Hoo!!!

Bull, honeymoon is over so now you have time to blog again. Nice run! So, Vegas, Tucson, CIM, Mesquite. Lets hear the wisdom of the bull. I know how much you love Tucson.

From Bill on Wed, Oct 14, 2009 at 12:07:49 from 168.179.180.160

What Honeymoon? That would be nice! I think Vegas is the one 4 u! But you got to keep up the training and not get burned out! that will be the Key to having a good race!

Good to have you back my friend! I am not sure what marathon I want to do. I would prefer to find a Saturday run. There is one in Death Valley on the 5th of December. Fairly flat with rollers, not the easiest but not bad and it is small. I still want to go check out Mesquite and see how brutal the last miles are.

From Mike Warren on Wed, Oct 14, 2009 at 16:26:17 from 207.50.149.221

Scott, I had some neighbors run Death Valley a couple years ago. She missed her BQ at STG by 1:15 seconds. She decided to try at Death Vally and ran it 35 min slower. Not saying this will be your fate. She was not happy with the out & back course and just thought it was much tougher than STG. On the other hand, that would be some sweet bragging rights to say you BQ'd at Death Vally.

I was thinking the same thing easy miles in the dark. I haven't ran since the roof accident. Maybe I'll get out tonight or tomorrow. You want to run Saturday?
