Stay fit enough to keep up with my grandson. Personal: 52, married for 30 years to the same wonderful woman, 2 grown kids, 1 grandson.
That's my son and I in the picture at the 2007 Buffalo Run. He's always a big help and a pretty cool kid.
I direct the Antelope Island Buffalo Run, the Mountain View Trail Half Marathon, and the Antelope Island 50K/100K, all on Antelope Island State Park. The website is www.buffalorun.org

| I was dreading having to use the 'mill tonight and was saved. Halleluah! One of our Engineers from Mississippi was wanting to do a little trail run after work in the full moonlight. I called a friend and the three of us did 6 miles on the BST above Ogden with the last two mile headlamps off and just going by moonlight. It was awesome and beat the crap out of doing the 'mill. | | Comments(4) |

| Had big plans to do the 'mill thing tonight. Got on and figured out that i just wasn't into it. So I quit after 2.5 miles. No guilt either. | | Add Comment |

| Did the t-mill thing again. Decided to do a barefoot run. The original plan was to do 6 miles, but after 5 I felt blisters starting, including one on the bottom of my big toe. Ouch! Anyway, I kept bumping the pace up as teh miles went by until I was at a sub 8 pace. Felt pretty good, very easy. | | Comments(2) |

| Second training run on the island. Had about 10-12 people show up. Snowy and windy was the order of the day. Still, wasn't too bad. Did have some temporarily lost runners, but we found them none the worse for the wear and tear. | | Comments(1) |

| I'll post a better report in a day or two but suffice to say that this was one of the most epic and interesting races I have ever run. I dnf'd but so did everyone else. I was 27 miles into the race when it was called on account of the weather. There, that should get some people interested. Ok, my race report is posted at www.ultrajim.blogspot.com | | Comments(2) |

Did my first run since the race. 5 miles on the 'mill barefoot. Shouldn't have done that. Ran most of it under 8 min. and ended up with a blister on each toe. Owww!

| Ran the White Rock trail on Antelope Island. Lots of crusty snow made the going tough. I figure it was marathon effort for a 100 mile pace. Still not a bad run at all. | | Comments(1) |
