At sunset I ran the Bonneville Shoreline Trail up to the radio towers. I just ran nice and easy to loosen things up. On Saturday I will be running the Timpanogos Trail Marathon. After reading the description of the course and seeing the elevation map, I think this will be the toughest course that I have ever ran. Which makes me very excited.

Twinkies! How'd it go? I was there this a.m. handing out bib #'s and race packets..I met Davy Crockett..his name kind of stands out... If you checked in, I missed you since you didn't say you were Twinkies! :D Shaun Christian kept bugging me to sign up..just didn't have it in me since I raced last Sat...Next year I might try to do Kidarelay which is Friday 8am to Saturday 8am..(I would leave one hour early in time for the 1/2....or several hours early for the full)..then head over to Timp Half Marathon Saturday Morning..sounds fun huh? :D

Sorry Missy. I didn't realize that was you. I had on my twinkies shirt, but I had a navy blue wind breaker over it. You should definitely do this race next year.

That's so funny...I didn't even see a guy who looked remotely like you..maybe it confused the both of us being in 3D as opposed to 2D...oh, lol, and the fact that my profile picture just shows the top of my head not my face. ...SO, from now on you are only allowed to wear that Exact same outfit in your profile picture, then I will be sure to spot you!
