I would like to recommend a kindle e-book on Amazon called The 27th Mile. All proceeds go to victims of the Boston Marathon bombing. Only $4.99.

2 miles and some striders. More walking than I would have liked around the park at cross country practice.

Any goals for tomorrow, or just see how things go? Good luck!

Good luck tomorrow Rob. I'm hoping maybe I'll be able to go up tomorrow and route for you all.

Go straight at the zoo. Skip that Wasatch Drive portion and you'll be in the low 2:20s!

I'm always tempted to do that Jake. Or at least absentmindedly forget to do that little right turn loop at the bottom of Little Mountain. Seriously, who would know?

Sasha could easily manipulate your Garmin output file to make it look like you ran the whole distance
