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.

Met up with a few other crazy people for a run up Lake Mountain.  Got up bright and early and got to enjoy a spectacular view once we got to the top.  Cruised around the top checking out other towers and areas then cruised back down the mountain.  We added a few extra miles at the bottom of the mountain.  My legs were feeling good until the last few miles as I could tell I was low on fuel. 

Now my legs are not loving me very much as I had to head home and go to work sitting in a car for 10 hours. 

Got to meet some really great people from the blog and hopefully we can go on some more adventures sometime.

Sad to have missed this again, but you did get to run with some great people!

Jimmy, did you know that you were such a good hill climber/trail runner? When those teensy little hills in the Shamrock half come up in the next two weeks, you won't even feel them compared to this! Next time, you have just got to speak up if you're feeling low on gas like that. I always carry extra gels for exactly that reason, and I know je10 had some extra jalapeno pizza in that pack of hers. :-)
