Twenty miles in 2:30 around Sugarhouse/Hogle Zoo/Foothill. Did the last five miles on the Highland High track so as to be a little easier on my legs. I was definitely feeling the lack of miles the last few weeks. Not sure what to think about a marathon two weeks from today.

But I have a plane ticket so I'm going.

Off to church now and maybe the state fair after that.

Nice job getting a 20 miler in. You'll have a great race - not to worry.

What marathon? Nothing shows up on your race schedule.

Sweet distance run! I couldnt do a 20 miler right now on a bike.

Jon - yeah, I need to update my blog to the left there. I'm doing Twin Cities on October 2. It's the USATF Masters championships. I'm wishing I could just focus on R2R2R with Jeff and Steve.

You can... just skip TC.
