Top of Utah 26.2

I finally did it...registered at least:

TOP OF UTAH MARATHON 

LOGAN, UTAH

SEPTEMBER 15, 2012

This will be my motto during training and the race...

I was debating doing the St. George marathon because of the elevation difference (see chart below) but it would be a lottery for the marathon. I need to know for sure if I am running 26.2 miles...I need to start training mentally now. I've run three half marathons (Moab, Provo, and Thanksgiving Point) and enjoyed the challenge and that distance. I need to do a full marathon now before time for training becomes an issue. I have the time to train with no kids, etc. and my body is feeling great.

I want to do the St. George and Ogden half marathons in the future. I am doing the Utah Valley half in June the week before running the Wasatch Back. Not sure if I will do another marathon - I will have to see how I feel after the Top of Utah. There's something I love about training and race days...hard to explain to those who don't race. Just gotta try it...to feel it!
