6 am - 9 miles with downhills on Peterson Lake Road.  Jessie and Jacob are sick - hoping I won't catch it.  Lots of upper respiratory illnesses going around right now with the change in the weather.

6 am - 10.5 with downhills and into Johnson park, then cut through with the new paved trail to Shelton.  Nice, cool morning.  Felt fairly strong and did some pickups in the middle of the run.

4:30 am Central time - up and ready to travel to St. George!

11:00 am Pacific time - in Las Vegas getting ready to drive up to St. George, but stopping for lunch and a little sight-seeing here first.

5:00 pm Mountain time - Driving around St. George - it is amazingly beautiful here. The drive from Las Vegas was also beautiful - the scenery is gorgeous!

6:30 pm - I am ready to eat dinner and sleep!  Been up way too long.

It was awesome to meet my fellow FRB bloggers at the blog party - thanks Michelle, Tarzan, Sunnyrun, CanadianFlash for your advice and support!  Here it is Monday already, and I'm just getting a chance to write the race report.  I had to leave soon after the race finish to check out of the hotel and head back to LV to turn in the rental car.  I was also really cold and could not find my car, but that's another story...

Yes!  I qualified for Boston - my BQ was 4:00:59, and I finished SGM in 3:49:19! Without injury - just sore quads. Thank you Sasha for the excellent training plan - it really DOES work!  Thanks, Michelle, for your encouragement and feedback along the way!  Congratulations on your excellent finish!

I'll write more detail later. Already sent in the application for Boston.
