I ran the Ogden Half Marathon.   Went up with Dustin and his family Friday afternoon.  We arrived in Ogden around 7:30 and got are numbers.  I had the privilege of meeting some of the guys on the blog.   Steve Ashbaker, Paul Petersen, Andy and a few others. All of them are amazing runners.   I knew coming into this race that it would pretty much be just a training run due to my planters.  The course is down hill and the road slants to the right.  Since my injury is on my right foot this caused some additional problems?  I tried to run in the middle of the road when possible.    I managed to finish. I loved the course.  Maybe next year I will come back and run the marathon if I do not run Boston. 

$100.00 for gas, $80.00 for entry fee.  $30 for food.   10 hours of driving time.   Getting my picture taken with Dustin Ence, Paul Petersen. Steve Ashbaker, Priceless!!!

Hey Bill, do you have a a copy of the picture? - Great job by the way. I'm glad that you didn't try to push too hard. I'm looking forward to seeing you foot get healed-up.

$80 entry fee for a half marathon?? Wow, that's on par with overhyped NY Half, I think. I thought you can get the full marathon for this kind of money, but maybe I'm living in the past.

Take care of that foot, Bill. Can you bike, or swim, or aqua-jog? Oh, and post that picture!

Wow look at those poster boys.
