Have you ever run the 10k Allie? Or is it marathon or nothing for you?

i ran the 10k twice in high school with my mom. we were on the shuttle bus back to research park when i saw all the marathoners shuffling along foothill. i told my mom i was going to run the marathon next year, mostly as a joke, but the joke came true.

You never see better marathon death marches than you do along Foothill in the Deseret News Marathon.
