| I met Kory and Penny Parrish at Century HS and we drove to the start of the marathon course. I knew I was going to be in trouble. Here I was running with 2 people who have won the marathon here more than once. We started out a bit faster than I wanted and Kory and Penny eventually pulled away from me around mile 10. I ran my own pace to get my miles in and had a great morning. It was 47 at the start and probably only 65 when we finished. The Pocatello triathlon was going on so we saw lots of bikers on the last 2 miles to Century. I ran 19.60 miles.

| It was 58 degrees this morning. When I started my Garmin it said "battery low". I know I put it in the charger, hopefully I just did it wrong and it is not going bad. Needless to say it died halfway through my run. I ran approximately 8 miles. |

| It was 68 degrees and overcast this morning. I ran 10.32 easy miles so I can save some for the butt-kicking Kory and Penny will give me tomorrow. |

| I met Kory, Shannon, and Keaton at Century at 5:30 and we drove up to the top of Buckskin. It was in the low 60's with a good breeze. We even got rained on pretty hard coming out of Inkom for about a mile and it was great. I ran 20.02 easy miles, mostly with Shannon. I didn't want to push it too hard with Park City next week. |

| It was nice and cool at the start this morning. I ran this as an easy training run. I saw Rachel, Smooth, and Teena at the start. I took it really easy the whole way and actually enjoyed the scenery for probably the first time I have run this, and this was my 12th straight Park City marathon. I felt really good at the finish and should be really strong for Pocatello in 2 weeks. It was a fun day.

| It was probably between 45-50 at the top of Buckskin this morning. Kory and I went to the marathon start but ran the opposite way back in to town. We kept a good pace for the first 8 miles and stopped at Alameda park for a drink from the fountain. Then we ran the hills back to my house. I ran 13.13 miles in a good tune-up for next week. |

| It was 60 degrees this morning. I ran 10.13 miles with 3 miles at MP (7:16, 7:15, 7:11). Unfortunately that is where my marathon pace is right now and I will struggle to hold that all the way on Saturday. |
