AM:

Rest day. I am already very anxious at 10 am.

I am also awaiting the St George marathon lottery results, so that has me additionally on edge. Also, I am awaiting results for my 5 yr old Charlie's ELP test to determine where he is going to kindergarten. These are promised by mid May. Also, there is a plumber going to my mom's today and I have yet to hear from them and I am feeeling anxious since she needs her AC to work. Also, a permanent crown and a haircut scheduled for this afternoon. I hate the waiting place.

Funny that I am on edge about St George five days before Ogden. Intended?

I currently plan to take most or all of next week off, but I am already guessing I will be bouncing off the walls.

PM: I got in to St George so I am super excited.

We might luck out with a little colder weather Saturday. What time are you heading up in the morning?

I am staying in West Weber at my inlaws.

Congrats on getting into St. George! That's a great race; I absolutely loved it, despite not racing very well there.

Congrats on getting into SG. I hope the taper is going well.

Thanks Riley and Fritz. The taper feels good. I have followed the Fritz routine pretty closely.

James - It has been interesting to monitor the weather. Funny how things change from day to day and our hopes and expectations along with it. Right now, maybe 50 at the start and 57 at the finish with a slight chance of rain. That sounds very doable. I am glad the predictions in the 80s are a thing of the past.
