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.

Went to the BST in Sandy for one last nice trail run before the weather turns.  The plan was to meet my friend Scott and run the HPHM 10K route.  However, I ended up getting off work a bit early so I went up and ran a tempo run for 15 minutes out, then 15 minutes back.  It felt nice.  Then I met up with Scott in the parking lot and we ran the 3 miles out and back.  Felt like I only got 9.5 in total, so when I got home I took my dogs to the park and ran around for a bit with them to make it an even 10.

It was a beautiful day out there and I can't remember when I've had a more enjoyable run on that trail.  My back still hurt from being an idiot over the weekend, but I think running loosened things up a bit.  Things should be back to normal in the next few days.

On a side note I wore my Rogue Racers on this run and they were awesome.  My previous long run in them was 4 miles.  I love how much room they have in the toebox for my wide forefoot and how much more stable the platform feels compared to my Wildcats.  Looks like I'll be transitioning to these to race in next year.

Good timing. The trail will be a sloppy mess today. I can't wait for HPHM. The trophies are done, now it's just planning the lunch!

Can't wait to see how the trophies turned out! Let me know if you need any help with the lunch or anything.

Nice miles for a Monday. I'll have to look into the RR's, been looking for something to repalce my Wildcats. Nice!

Jun, you are the busiest non-official RD in the Biz. Good on you for putting together fun "non-events." Wish I could be at the HPHM.
