Met Amy's (co worker) running friends up at Suncrest and we ran down to the Legacy Center in Lehi. I met Erica Roberts who knew me somehow and antoher Amy whos husband manages the Tri center. His name is Keb. I ran with him and Russ, the race director of the BYU-Utah relay. We did a 6:55 average for the 10 miles. I did a 1:08. we did a 5:45 last mile which felt good but my legs were tight from SGM still. Erica gave me and Amy a ride back up to my car and told me she knew me from being friends with Carina. Small world our little running community is! She is a riot though, I was laughing at her comments. She called Suncrest Bitch mountain. I have to clean the gatorade out of her truck i spit up.    So it was a great little after burner SGM run. The elevation was 6100' up at Suncrest. It was like we were in Park City. Right in the clouds. Ill have to see if I can figure out how to put her pic from her FB on here! Its insane up there. Great run though I know my legs wont be healed for SoJo marathon. I will have to see how it goes.

Welcome to our world Burt!

Kurt, I'll watch for you as well. I know Steve Ashbaker is running it too. It'll be a good day hopefully. Not a scorcher like SGM.
