Ran 8 this morning before Julie came along. Then I ran 2 more with her before going home. 

This morning I made one of the biggest decisions of my life.  I am going to run the Top of Utah Marathon ahhhhhhhhh! I am a little scared!!!!  Wish Julie and I luck on our training for the next 3 months.

**pm update** ran 3.60 up the river trail with Julie. Wahooo!

Wooohoooo! I'll be there too, however I probably won't see you after the gun goes off. :) I'm excited for you.

Nice miles again this week. You are ready to run TOU right now.

You will be awesome even if you ran it tomorrow. Is this the same girl who said you never wanted to do a marathon? Haha.

Lily, what a great decision. TOU is an amazingly beautiful and run marathon. It was my first too. You'll absolutely kill it, I'm certain of that.

I'm anxious to hear what you have planned for goal times, pace, etc.

You don't need luck! You'll do awesome!

Nice half marathon today. Wow!

Lily, if I may keep it real, TOU was my first marathon, and it sucked! Oh my gosh! All down hill the first 17 miles, then it levels out. It's a total shock to the system. Oh, but I'm sure you'll do great.

From KP on Fri, Jun 18, 2010 at 09:01:04 from 65.208.22.26

downhill! that is what i need. when is this?

From Lily on Fri, Jun 18, 2010 at 10:14:27 from 67.199.181.73

hmmmm Well Burt, what do you suggest?

From Scott Wesemann on Fri, Jun 18, 2010 at 11:25:52 from 66.239.250.209

Debbie Downer... uh I mean Burt!

From Merri on Fri, Jun 18, 2010 at 14:52:27 from 160.7.252.148

TOU was my first marathon too, but I loved it. The down hill miles were awesome for me...come on burt positive thoughts :)

From Lily on Fri, Jun 18, 2010 at 15:18:59 from 67.199.181.73

Just had a thought. Why didn't we start a ragnar team consisting of awesome FRB runners? Dang we should have done it!

From jun on Fri, Jun 18, 2010 at 15:19:40 from 63.224.106.224

That's a good question. We could have won. And at the very least had a crazy time.
