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 up to the BST in Sandy for a nice easy run.  Ran the BST then connected with Ghost Falls, then ran down Corner Canyon road.  My dad came along and kept me company.  He's coming off an injury so we made sure to take things really easy.  Was good for me to not push it since this is the first time I've run since the race last weekend. 

Recovery went really well and I was ready to run again on Tuesday.  My feet were a little battered though, and since I found out I'm doing Ragnar next weekend, I wanted to make sure my blisters were healed over before I ran again.  Thus the long layoff.

Overall it was a great day.  Note to self:  Don't run Corner Canyon on Saturdays in June...  Way too many mountain bikers.

Ha, yeah, I get that about Corner Canyon in June. Glad you are feeling so good. When is your team's start time for Ragnar and what leg are you running? I got suckered into it too. I think I'll be glad when it's over. So far it has just been a distraction from Laramie a week later.

Our team starts at 11:00 I believe. I'm runner 5 on an ultra team, so I'm running the legs for runners 9 & 10. We may end up with only 5 people though, so I could end up doing at least 1 more leg as well. Could be interesting.
