Ok, I'm not sure anyone will read this or will be interested but I will post all this week and see if there are any takers.

On Saturday I want to do one last long run before St. George and am looking for anyone that wants to join in. All are welcome even if we are going seperate paces we can at least start together and if enough show maybe even have a couple of groups. Anyway the proposal is to run up at Deer Creek and get a good 20 miler in. There is a great dirt road along one side of Deer Creek Resevoir that is rolling hills at about 5600 feet. The plan would be to do an out and back along the reservoir (out for 6 miles) and then when we get back to the top of the resevoir, where we started, then we would head down the Provo Canyon for the last 8 miles. We would finish at the Breidal Veil Falls parking area. If my estimate is right we would hit the parking lot at mile 19 and then do a 1 mile loop back up to the falls and back to make it 20. I think this would be a great final preparation run for St. George and it would allow us to have water at the 12 mile mark since a car would be parked there. If there are any takers we could meet at the Breidal Veil Falls parking area and then carpool up to the start by the resevoir.

If anyone is interested reply this week. I am looking at starting at 6:00am as I need to be done as early as possible. If I end up with no takers I guess I will be on my own and have to have wy wife drop me off at the resevoir.

I was also planning a long run in Provo Canyon, but it's looking like I might have to start much earlier and stick closer to home (Cedar Hills). My wife needs to get in another long run and we have to run kids around in the morning. If those plans change, I'll let you know.
