So I got a killer deal, I went to get new runners and ended up with new trail runners also...Anthony at Peak Performance in Ogden is the bomb :) If you ever need a good hook up on shoes go see him, tell him I sent you :)

Well Anthony invited me to go for a run with him and some other runners tonight. Trail running at 5:00pm, yep by mile 2 it was dark. I was so nervous, I trip getting out of a van... trails at night I was certain I would end up falling off the cliffs. But nope YAHOOO I did so good. Except for the fact that I was the slowest of the group. :( But at least I came back without any major damage. What a way to break-in new trail runners :)

Thanks Marion,

You can not believe how scared I was in teh dark running around on the trails. I thought for sure I was going to end up face down... but YAHHHH I did pretty good.
