Miles:This week: 0.00 Month: 0.00 Year: 0.00

11 miles around the trails below Snowbasin.  A few good pick ups, with a couple miles sub-7.  Legs feeling great, fresh, but a little sluggish.  One week to go!! Gotta remeber the race starts on Friday, doh!

Funny thing, I called a friend who had said she was interested in pacing part of the Bear to she if she would like to run a 15-20 mile section.  I aplogized for the short notice, she started rattling off all the things she would have to cancel, but said she was totally up for it and would be there for sure.  In my head I was thinking geeze you sure know your schedual well and are pretty booked if you know exactly what you have going and what to cancel a week in advance, but I didn't say anything to her.  I ended the conversation saying I would get with her with more details later and probably get her some stuff to bring for me.  We hung up and about five minutes later my phone rings and she asks what time the race starts tomorrow! Now that's a good friend and pacer.  She thought I was calling her at 6:00 PM the night before the race to pace me, and she said she could do it! wonder what went through her head when I said I'd get more details to her later?? Hilarious!

That is serious dedication. Wow. If she could pull that off in less than a day, she'll have no problem with next Friday. Ha. Enjoy the rest between now and then.

Nice to see your legs are feeling good. I'm excited to see how you do next week. You have really put in the time and miles, so I am expecting a great race.

Dedicated pacer. Ha.

Ohh too much pressure Scott! :) But thanks. At this point a great race will be a finished race.

Thanks all, rest sucks!
