Well, I pounded out 5 miles this morning. That was my longest run since April. There is a long way to go and a lot of improvement to go before May 21, 2011 rolls around. I know it will be a lot better once I lose weight so I am not working so hard on my runs. Oh well, at least I am doing something besides being a great couch potato. Let's go team! :)

Moonlight Half Marathon



Yeah!! I wanted to post some pics from the half marathon--so fun and so worth it. I haven't ran much since August so I guess it is back to some sort of training for the upcoming Ogden Marathon--yep you talked me into it Kev. So here we go back to the grind...

Ogden Marathon

I just registered for the Ogden Marathon. The marathon starts east of Huntsville, goes around the north side of Pineview Reservoir, and down the canyon to Ogden. Except for the canyon (downhill), the course is relatively flat. Here is a link to the marathon website and you can drill down to a PDF file of the course map: http://www.ogdenmarathon.com/

I hope that once this is over, I am able to run the St. George marathon later in the year (if I get selected in the lottery).

Oh boy...here I go. Anyone else interested?

St. George Marathon

While I am typing this, the leaders of the St. George Marathon are done, and the middle of the pack 3 - 4 hour runners are starting to finish. I am really finding myself wishing I would have drawn out and was able to run the marathon. I am down in St. George right now and the weather is beautiful. Bright sunshine, a little warm for running, but nice. Next year will be the year!
