Slow miles	Fast miles	Total Distance
7.30	0.00	7.30

9 pm After spending the afternoon @ byu with my daughter I have decided it's a nice place to visit but I wouldn't want to live there, especially during EFY and sport camps. Hey, she got tickets to the BYU/Utah game, plus a hoodie so it wasn't a total waste.

We got home from Provo, quickly followed by a youth council induction for my son. I skipped work and the morning run, so Jack hopped in the stroller and we went for an easy 7. A nice cool-front blew through, (funny how those words rhyme) so this run was very pleasant.

Ragnar begins tomorrow. Our team certainly hasn't been micromanaged, so it's bound to be a sleepless adventure. Rumor has it one of our 6 runners is having achilles trouble; I hope I'm not going to have to pick up extra legs. 30 miles is enough.

Stroller Miles: 7.30	Green Mirage Miles: 7.30

Hopefully everyone is ok. Maybe I could jump in if there is an emergency....30 miles...ugh.

Good luck, Ragnar is always fun!

I apologize for getting you into this mess. It will be an adventure for sure.

Andy, you are just returning the favor from two years ago. It'll be a good weekend, in some sense of the word. :)

The reasons you wouldn't want to live at BYU are probably the exact same ones that kids want to live there. Ha. So, an ultra team? What are your legs? (I am #10, 6:15 a.m. Friday start.)

Neasts, it was a good campus visit. The tour guide talked about moving out of the house and living away from home. Afterward my daughter's comment was, "It wouldn't be like living away from home at all; it's just like home." I don't envy the decisions she has to make.

I am runner 4, so 7-8, 19-20, and 31-32, with an 11:30 start. It doesn't seem likely that we will catch up to your team. Have fun!

Good luck Kam. 30 miles through the mountains at one time or spread out on roads with a bunch of stinky people? Hmm. tough choice.
