Funny that my 50 mile time is faster than my 50K.  Guess that's what happens when your only 50K has over 11,000' of vertical ascent =)

Just want to stay happy and healthy.  Bring on whatever that may entail!

Personal:

I started running in April '09 and run to maintain some balance in my life.  Apparently I have an addictive personality so I figure I should do something positive with it.

Got out with my dad and my friend Scott.  We decided to run Mill D to the ridge, then run to Scott's tower and back.  Nice day to get out and do this route because I was working on tired legs.  I was happy with how my body responded for the most part.

The one thing that frustrated me a little bit was my left foot.  On Wednesday this last week I pulled a muscle in it when I was out chasing my dogs around.  Thursday it was feeling much better and it only bothered me a little bit towards the end of my run yesterday.  It really started bothering me today on the second half of the run... Never really got worse though, so that's good news I guess.  Luckily, I have all my training behind me now and I can take the next few days off to let this thing heal up.

Yeah, that nagging injury will be gone by Wasatch. Glad things are feeling strong.

Ice, ibuprofen, beer and a few days off should help.

Smart way to look at it. Heal up, you'll be ready.
