Not get injured and stay consistent with my training.

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.

Decided to try out the knee today.  On Tuesdays run I felt a twinge on the last mile of the workout.  It wasn't much just a twinge, I felt it a bit when I woke up the next morning so I decided to let it rest.  After working 15 hours yesterday I got an extra day to let it rest.  Went out today by myself around the neighborhood.  Just wanted to take it easy and see how it felt.  Miles were as followsL:1st 8:15 feeling good, could not feel the knee, 2nd 8:02 still feeling good,  3rd 7:55no problems I was going to throw in some 2 min.fartlets but decided to just keep it smooth and see how things went, 4th 7:51 nice and easy, 5th 7:38 I think the knee is good, no problems.  The run felt pretty smooth and hopefully I can keep my training rolling.  The Ogden marathon is coming up, well I got a few more months.

I am glad the knee is better.
