So...after not being able to run outside for 3 weeks and now having gone for a couple runs of no significant distance during which I felt like I was beginning training all over, I've decided not to run my first 1/2 marathon in Spanish Fork this coming weekend.

 A good friend of mine wants to run a 1/2 but isn't feeling ready yet.  We are going to train and find a 1/2 to run.  Anyone know of any cheap 1/2 marathons in Utah...closer to Provo?  

 Also, anyone want to add a runner to a running group or make a new one.  I run around an 8:00min mile on longer runs and can push myself like a true competitor.  I want to meet my goal but lack the support of other runners to go with.

I'm so glad you joined the blog! So are you in Dallas or Utah? I really wish you were still here...there is NO ONE to run with!!! Just be patient. It's hard when you have a break but it will come back faster than you think.
