Wow! You bounced back quick from your stellar half!

Great seeing you today! What floor were you working? I looked at your goals for 2011 I want to do about half of what you have planned, I stink! Where can I get some of your ambition? Haha

McKenzie--I was working in my old workplace The NICU. I used to work there (17 years) all the time. Now I work at AFH and occasionally get pulled to UVRMC's NICU or pediatrics. I have no idea why I have the ambition. I am slightly worried about actually getting older and no longer being this energetic, so I don't stop, in case stopping causes me to stop, If you get what I mean.

April-- honestly I am not in the least bit sore or fatigued from the race. I honestly could have kept going at that pace for at least 10 more miles. I feel very happy about this. I still have some residual TM fall kinks to work out and wish it never happened but it helped me control my pace better at the race so as to not injure myself further.

btw McKenzie I am NOT running the Wasatch 100 this year but will be next year after I get closer or break 3 hours in the marathon!! Want to join me in this crusade? My friends have this goal to run the wasatch 100 and invited me to join them. She and her husband are the ones that inspired me 10 years ago to want to run Squaw Peak....so I just have to run that with them. They want to run it next year.
