Not get injured and stay consistent with my training.

Complete a 50 and 100 mile ultra.

Qualify for Boston... missed it by 8 seconds previously

Run one of those rediculously aided Utah half-marathons helter skelter down a canyon and get a PR.

Personal:

Married with three boys. Ran the Odgen Marathon in honor of my mother, a marathoner, who passed away from cancer and it just had continued from there. Grew up in a running family and have fallen in love with running, especially on trails.

Had to do the unthinkable this morning.  Woke up to about 6 inches of snow at my house and no plows in sight.  I have a lot of obligations today so the run couldn't wait, put the 4 wheel drive on and headed to the gym. 

Had the gym all to myself and ran 18 on the treadmill.  That has to be a record as I don't see how anyone can stand to be on one any longer than that.  Put the office in the dvd player and away I went.  First 9 miles @ 8:00 pace, then 3 @ 7:53, then 3 @ 7:49, then 2 @ 7:30, with the last mile close to marathon pace 7:08.  AP for the run 7:51

Got home and took the pup on for a jog through the fields with my snow boots on for another 1 mile.  Overall I can't complain, got my longest run of the year in and my legs came out of it in ok shape (so far.)
