17.5 miles on Smooth's absolutely BEAUTIFUL Alpine Loop course. :) :) :)

No Chumps run today, so Smooth convinced me that running in Lehi would be well worth the drive. She was SO SO SO right.

Met up with Smooth and her gang a little after 6. The weather was amazing. Ran a couple of miles with my SSF and Staci and then got caught up in the beauty of the area and wanted to find a natural but good effort pace. Seriously, this was one of the prettiest training runs I have ever run. I LOVED it. Albeit, I had no idea that we were going to be running hills again! Well worth it though. :) :) :)

Not sure if I should count my marathon pace miles as marathon pace since they were downhill. Hmmm ...

Anyway ... THANK YOU SO MUCH SMOOTH!!!!!

** On a side note ... Smooth failed to mention in her entry how stinkin' amazing she is AND how she smoked me on the last mile!!!! If that girl wouldn't run so many dang marathons she could easily knock off 20 minutes! She NEVER gives herself enough credit!

(Came home and went boating ... only to get out in the water for about an hour and turn around and come back home. Dang wind!)

((BUT ... my hubby bought me the dishwasher I have been eyeing for quite some time - but could never pull the trigger on - while I was gone this morning. HUGE BONUS!!!!))

50 minutes upright bike (very easy - just to loosen the legs)

Husbands are great! Tell Ryan congrats on a sweet dishwasher move. I am glad the run was so great.

I'm sure you deserved the dish washer. Ryan is a great guy. You are very lucky... and he is too.

Sounds like a beautiful run. All I ever get to look at is desert... and the lake, which actually is beautiful.

SSF ~ Did you get a Bosch?

THANK YOU for driving all the way to Lehi this morning! It was an incredible morning! I so wanted you to see where I run. I am glad it did not disappoint!

*As a side note and for the record ~~~ I did NOT smoke you that last mile!!! You were doing your cool down, remember?!!! You just let me go, that's all!***

Love you and am so grateful for your SSF'ship!!!

Oh, Yeah! Staci and I were amazed at how fast and smooth you ran, both up and down the hills! Your AP was amazing! I hope you get your confidence back that your running as good and if not better than in March! You will do awesome at PCM and FANTASTIC at SGM! Trust me!

Have a great Sabbath! LOVE YOU! Tell Ryan I think he's the greatest! And GOOD LUCK to Rylee's talk!

How did you know it was a Bosch???? Yes! I'm so excited!!! Unfortunately it was not in stock (it's the brand spankin' new model). it won't be here for roughly two weeks. I am sure it will be worth the wait though. I am definitely FAR TOO SPOILED!!!!
