| Went to Stillwater, OK this weekend to watch my sister-in-law graduate from OSU. Had a small party on Saturday. Stayed for Mother's Day. Ate way too much at Red Lobster (can you say Admiral's Feast?!) Only got in 3 miles this morning before it started raining, and lightninging (had to call for a ride back to the in-law's). Back home now. Will try running a little tomorrow. Got a free offer to run the Steam Boat Marathon in Steamboat Springs, CO (2 nights lodging and 2 race entries) on June 7th (it's a Sunday...good thing I run on Sundays :-). Thinking of taking the family out West during the 2 weeks before that and possibly heading through Utah before heading back to Steamboat. From the looks of it, Steamboat is only about 250 miles east of SLC. If anyone wants the other entry, please let me know ASAP. :-) If I do run this, it will be quite a challenge. It starts at 8100 ft elev. -- but ends up around 6400...so that's a good thing. It might be like running Park City -- go for the scenery, not the PR.

I ran a fairly easy 3 miles after my daughter's award dinner at school. I only had time for 3 miles before it got dark, and I was running on a full stomach. Not a great run, but I got a few miles in.
On the brighter side, I won the lottery and am official entered for the 2009 St George Marathon!!!! Time to start training for about a 3:15 time. If I can maintain my fitness throughout the summer, my 3:19 at Boston -- and good race conditions in October could make it possible. I ran St George one other time in 2007, and ran a 3:20:02 -- while sick with a sinus infection. I need to stay healthy, and 3:15 should be within my reach...and best of all, I get to run with Huans and Jeff C -- on the way to their BQs. At least that's the current plan!!! :-)
I'm a little bummed that Teena didn't get in...I'm sooooo sorry Teena. |

| Ran a quick 4 miles w/ Eric at lunch. That's 3 days of running in a row...short runs, but still running. Time to figure out how to do a short rampup and taper for Steamboat Marathon on June 7th. Probably a 15 miler on Saturday morning, then a 20 miler the following week. No big goals for Steamboat, but would still like to be around 3:30. |

| 84 degrees, 54% humidity, wind S 16-20mph Lunchtime run.
Started out with Eric and Darin. Eric dropped back almost immediately. Not sure what happened to him. Darin and I kept conversational the whole way, even though we were running mid 7's. I felt pretty good (probably due to 2 days without running). 6 miles, AP: 7:24 Laps: 7:21, 7:21, 7:25, 7:26, 7:45 (uphill into wind), 7:06 Going to try to get in a 15 miler early tomorrow morning...before helping my buddy with cement work on the pool he is building---by himself.(he's braver than me).
