Well that's it, my last long run before Top Of Utah.  It was torturous, I decided to do two 5 mile loops on Sunset and 1 ten mile loop.  This is way too hilly for me, but I'm in my comfort zone in this area.  Craig would be taking the boys to seminary/school etc so I was largely on my own.
Lessons learned:  One half eaten bag of gummy bears is not enough.  How can I have chocolate on the marathon without it melting?  I was craving a UNO candy bar, like those are even easy to find!  Craig did find me and bring me cold water bottles.  Kev was out riding and found me too and I was able to switch out my empty water bottle for his full one.  Thanks guys!  I saw Terry Davis this morning when he was taking Taylor to seminary and just as I was about a mile from finishing I saw him out riding  when I stopped to talk to him I bonked.  I actually called Craig to come get me and I would be happy with 19 miles, but Craig didn't hear his phone and I suppose I am glad so that I could actually accomplish the whole 20 I set out to do.  It was slow, I'm hoping the lack of hills at TOU will translate into a bit better time.  We'll see.
