Noon river run.  Picked up the pace to a 7:05 after the 1st mile (8:04) - good suggestion Jeff!  Nice day Temp around 50f and no wind!  Not sure I am ready to run Ogden Saturday, but it should be a great weather day to try.

I had a great time at the Ogden Marathon.  I did not train as well as I would have liked, but was pleased with the finish and, except for wobbly legs, felt pretty good afterwards.  I have not replaced my drowned GPS and the fastest pacer was a little under my goal at a 3:35 finish.   Fortunately, nearly everyone else seems to have a GPS now so I periodically asked runners around me what pace they were on to stay around a 3:30 time.  Perfect weather.

 

Once again Ogden did an outstanding job of putting on a race and I get to go back to Boston-one of the advantages of being old....
