Originally planned on 8 or 9 :) ended at 4. Avg pace 8:07. I will probably add some PM miles to this.

Just got back from the Utah Valley Marathon. It was so cool. There's such a cool feeling when you finish a marathon. I had to bring my kids so we were a little late, but we got there w/ plenty of time to see Mary Ann come in 1st!!! The 5k time hadn't switched over yet, but I am guessing she was around the 2:55 - 3 hour range. Then we saw JOSSE!!! She did great. I also saw Rick Clayton. He and I finished at the same time last year at Top of Utah. I saw Sasha when we first got there, but since I don't know him know him I didn't say hi. :) Kids were getting a little wild so we had to leave early. But I would have loved to see Marion! I have pictures of Josse I'll post them when I have some time. Oh and I never saw Allie, I really wanted to meet Allie the great. :) Next time I see her sleeping on a bus I'm gonna wake her up.

PM update: I was so motivated by the marathon today that I ran 6.2 at 6pm. avg pace 7:45

ha ha yes Lily that's a picture Wes took of me on our way home from the marathon I ran last year. :) I thought it was a fitting picture for yesterday's events.
