10/22/2010 - 10/23/2010 ~~ Ragnar Relay ~ Las Vegas

I ran the Las Vegas Ragnar Relay with some AWESOME people! In our vehicle we had Gary, Kathy, Craig, Kyle, Danny, and myself running each respective leg of the relay. I am not exactly sure who all was in the other vehicle because I just passed the wrist band to them and they were off running! It was definitely a different experience to run such a relay, try to sleep (when possible), and run again at all hours of the day and night. My first leg our team was the front runner. It was a great experience to be the first runner in to the first major exchange. I would do it again if such opportunity arises. For more details you can go to their website: www.ragnarrelay.com.

Ogden Marathon 2011

So, I was going to sign up for the Half Marathon after I ran the Layton Marathon. But, it was sold out 7 days after opening registration. So, with gentle persuasion from Ashlee, I decided to just sign up for the full marathon. Bridger also is registered for the KidsK. It will be fun!

10/9/2010 ~~ Layton Marathon

This was the first Layton Marathon. I ran with my sister, Heather, from California. It was fun to start running in the dark. We eventually saw the buffalo on the island. The causeway was LONG and FLAT! I really enjoyed running past my neighborhood. Thanks to those who cheered us on! It was a great boost to get us to the finish line.

Time = 5:44:36.8
Pace = 13:09

5/31/2010 ~~ Memorial Day Classic Half Marathon

Today I ran the Half Marathon at the Jensen Nature Park. I kept thinking the entire time that it was so much more fun to have Ashlee running with me (like I did 2 weeks ago.) I do admit, it was tough...but, I was pleasantly surprised to still finish at the 2 hour mark.

Time = 2:00:33.5
Pace = 9:12

5/15/2010 ~~ Ogden Half Marathon

Today was the Ogden Half Marathon. It was fun. I ran with my amazing wife, Ashlee. I am so proud of her and this awesome time...especially since neither of us trained more than one run every one to two weeks. We also ran with Heidi, a friend from our Clinton Ward. It was great to catch up with her and hear about her life these past months.

Time = 2:28:49.4
Pace = 11:21
