Red Mountain Ultra info

This looks like it will be a fun race with pretty scenery. It looks like dirt roads are the "trails." I think it will be a perfect transition into trail races and longer races. There's aid stations every three miles the whole way. That is really uncommon for an ultra. I'm really excited! I'm going to start taking my camera on some of the trails I'm starting to train on. I've posted a couple on Facebook already. It's incredibly beautiful. I wish I could take you along.

I Un-did it.

I withdrew from the Wasatch 100. How can I train for a trail that is 5 hrs away? I can't. Yet. I signed up for a 50 K in Central Utah in April though! Red Mountain 50 K.


So, most of the women with babies and preschool age kids are in a babysitting co-op, where everyone takes one day a month and watches everyone else's kids (that needs a babysitter) for a three hour shift. They asked me back when they started it if I wanted to participate and I declined. Sarah was a baby and would sit in the jogger, and I just frankly... wasn't ready to leave her anywhere yet. Now that she hates that jogger I am ready. I left her at a friend's house once already this week and I babysat yesterday. I'm going to leave her today from 9-12 for a long run. Here's some pics of the muffin decorating I attempted to do with the kids yesterday.


That was super crazy. Babies and Kindergarteners.
