Grizzly bears are like drugs

After going to dinner with my friends Melissa and Marni they told me about a variety of Utah bear sightings, accidents, & injuries. Growing up and still today I have gone hiking, backpacking, and camping with no fears of bears. Thanks to my friends I am now nervous to go in the outdoors...bears could be anywhere. It is a good thing to know because it's better to be safe than sorry. Ben Cook presented this presentation all about BEARS. Check it out!!! Thanks to this I feel more prepared and ready to take many more adventures outdoors.

I would never call myself a runner but for some addictive reason I continue to sign up for races. I am running the Thanksgiving Point Half at the end of April. I am following a training guide I found online and because of my personality of following guidelines I do what it says. I know the training will make the race more enjoyable. I ran 6 miles on Saturday outside. This was my first run outside since I started training. Let me just say...at mile 4 I was hoping the ground would keep moving under my feet so I had to move my legs at a quicker pace. The hills of Sandy and the length sure pushed my endurance. I did it, it was a warmer day, and I only inhaled a few too many deep breaths of exhaust. Here's praying for comfortable weather so I can continue training and recreating outside. This half will get me going...Ragnar is in June + EAT * PRAY * RUN * REPEAT!!!
