My first (and last) marathon

I'm just posting my 26.2 time of 3:52:04. I completed the Top of Utah marathon in Logan Utah. I'm pretty sore today, but I think I'm ready for the Vegas Ragnar.

PS My boss Tracy will be an alternate.

NEXT CHALLENGE

This ones gonna be easy and so fun! I want to invite any one who can come to our first team race! We are going to do a 5K on Saturday, October 3rd! Now I know you (in AZ) might be thinking oh it's still too hot. But we're going to PAYSON yay! Its the Rim Country Challenge. And they don't call it that because it's easy. But the good news is, it's only 3 miles and we can do 3 miles! Donald is going to do the Half Marathon so I need lots of people to come out and run with me. Registration is only 20$ if you sign up online before September 3oth. http://www.rimcountrychallenge.com/registration.htm We can all caravan together and it can be a really fun trip. Maybe we should wear matching headbands or something, ha ha.
Call me, email me, but go sign up ASAP!
P.S. Those of you not in AZ, find a race I know you can't be here so find a race in October that you can compete with others and get a time. Then post them for us :) Hopefully everyone can post their times in October and we'll see how close we are to our goal of an average of 11 minute miles.
(I know what race you're doing, Scott)

These are the 12 runners so far. Aren't they beautiful!

OK any one else want to run? We need more runners. More than 12. Yes. The truth is people might get hurt. They might quit. They might get pregnant. So we need alternates.

This is a really great opportunity to get in shape and do something fun with your family and friends. So start running with us we want you to so bad.

I hope we can get at least 3 more people to run with us.

It's GO TIME!

All right runners!!! It's decision time. Are you in? Or are you out? I hope you are in because it is going to be a really amazing experience to accomplish this. For most of us who are NOT runners this is a huge step but it's not about running the Ragnar tomorrow. It's about working really hard for the next 5 months to be able to complete this fun challenge. And all your work will pay off I promise. You will not regret any of it. It will be hard, but worth it. So your IN right?

I talked to Coleen and Todd recently and unfortunately, they are out. I know, I know that's sad because she was our inspiration. But they can't afford the trip to AZ with their family of 8. I understand. Maybe we can convince Coleen to come?

There are a few of you guys that I haven't talked to about this in a LONG time. I don't know where you're at? Let me know, email me at fmxragnar@gmail.com I need every one's email address who is on the FMX team. We need at least 12 confirmed runners by September 30th. I also need to 85$ from each runner before September 30th. That's when the money is due for the team. We are confident that we are going to kick butt, so we are going to take care of the 1020$ it costs to enter the race no matter what, but Donald and I are very poor college students so if you could please get your part to us that would be awesome.

Also I have a really easy training schedule I can email you that promises to get you ready for the race in 4 months! I've been working on it. It's easy.

I know everyone is busy with school getting back in, and work and the Holidays will be here very soon... Just remember that the most rewarding opportunities aren't the easy ones to accomplish. The harder the work and dedication the bigger the pay off. You will not regret being IN.
