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.

Technically I'm on a taper, although the last month (outside of Zion) has kinda felt that way.  Life's a rollercoaster right now for me!  Went with my friend Scott who paced me at Wasatch last year and did the Grandeur Fun Run course.  Once we got over the big climb he was not feeling well the rest of the way so we took it extremely easy.  Probably good for me so I didn't force myself to go too hard.  Super slow but it was a fun day out there!

Seriously, I know just how you feel. The last three weeks I've averaged 29 miles/week. Sheesh, an I'm NOT tapering. I think your body will thank you next week though.

I love that run. It is definitely one of my favs in the Wasatch. Sweet elevation, a cool peak, fun downhill and some great views on the Pipeline. Nice work.

Sounds like fun! I'm really excited to see how Squaw Peak goes!
