Saturday's Run (11/17/07)

Soccer Park, 5:45 or Mouth of Provo Canyon, 6:00

If you don't know where the mouth of Provo canyon is (I heard this to be true of the "Long" fellow), drive East on 800 North towards Provo canyon. Just before the highway splits to go up the canyon, you will see a gas station on the left. Take the first left directly after the gas station. There's a parking lot on the right.

Our group was talking about a bit earlier as Hilleen needs to be back before 8, DownHillDiva & I are possibly going to stay on road as she is sick and my hip is hurting on hills...anyway, as we talked, we talked about either 6 at the mouth or 5:30 at the park. Nothing firm yet.

Hmmm... tempting! As Spouse is scheduled for "Hunter Safety," my efforts would require the acquisition of a babysitter. If I go early with you guyses, I could save myself ten bucks!

Possibly 15.

I'm game for starting earlier,(are we still getting 15 in?!!!) I would prefer to start and end at the mouth but will do either. Rabid, I know the importance of saving some bucks (not the animal, although that's important to me too! I just can't convince my husband of that!) With this new plan is it possible to run to Vivian and back down to Bridal Veil and then those who need to head back a little earlier or don't want to get on the Shoreline trail can continue on down the canyon; and anyone who wants to get on the trail can do so as well? I'm one who is wanting to get on the trail-anyone else?

I'd love to get on the trails, but if the plan is to leave earlier than 6 then I'll probably have to find another run tomorrow. I get off work at 530, but could push it a little to get to the "jaws" at 6. Someone post up a final decision before 545 tonight (that's when I have to leave for work). Hopefully I'll see everyone in the morning.

P.S. Whenever you guys decide to start, I can try my best to schmooze the boss into letting me get there in time.

It was awfully lonely on Wed, even Capt. Scotty left me to play with his computer systems - but alas I got back to the park and there was Phil's car - I am not sure if he is a cracker, but I still raised his wiper blade in salute - so he could know that he was not alone.

Now about Saturday - I will leave my warm home at 5:15, be at the park at 5:30, and then at the mouth by 6:00.
Tempted by the trail run, but since I will be starting and ending from home - I think I will pass. Will try to keep up with triberry.

Constant is not all that bad - change can come on Tusday, Thursday, Friday and Holidays!

Triabry - are you leaving from yours or Hillene's house? If so, an earlier group could start from there then meet others at the mouth at 6:15 - 6:30?

I believe we settled on the park at 5:45 and the mouth at 6:00. It seems like that will meet most everyone's scheduling needs. 15 is still in order.

By "park" do you guys mean soccer park, or some other park I''m not aware of? - ms. mileage, if your still looking for some trail running, count me in. I'll make sure to actually prepare for the distance this time with water and tasty vittles.

Yes, the soccer park.

Here was my thought-I would like to meet at the mouth at 6, run up to Vivian (approx. 6 miles) then run back to Bridal Veil (approx.3 miles), then get on the Shoreline trail to make a loop of 6 miles. But how is that going to work for you Radracer if you want 15 and you're meeting at 5:45 and I want 15 and I'm meeting at the mouth at 6? I'm so confused this week. This blog is allowing for too many opinions!!!! I'm just kidding, it actually is nice to have everyone's input and not have to play phone tag to decide on a run. So, someone tell me how to run 15 miles and get some trail in as well. Also, Bishop B and Sister J (BYU) were going to meet at the Shoreline trail because they are running over to Rock Canyon and thought it would be fun to run together for part of it. So I need to let them know what our plan is.

John2, we are going to be running with Hillene, etc every other Wednesday. I know that Cracker is having a hard time accepting change, too, so you can probably count on him being at the soccer park every Wednesday. It's nothing personal, we are just tired of doing the same thing week after week. It keeps the runs interesting! And Longlegs is the new kid with a fuzzy face who started running with us two weeks ago! Tall and drives a jeep.

So, the plan still needs some finalizing. I'll be waiting for a response!!

so i am going to think out loud (scarry thought) oh hey ms millage are you going to the play tonight. maybe we can sit together. it was sooo great last night. i am so excited to go again. so do you like my thoughts. so it's about 12 miles to vivian and back. how many from the park and back maybe 3 oh hey that is 15. then i wont have to run more miles. my thought is will i be home by 8:00 any thoughts. i am a little nervous about the time. maybe i should drive to the canyon at 5:30 run to the park and be there at 5:45 then when i come down from vivian i will be done at the mouth of the canyon. hummmmmm

Hey Hillene, yes I'm going tonight. I'm going to head over about 6:20. I will watch for you. I can't wait to see the play! I bet you are feeling like such a proud mamma!!

I plan on meeting at the canyon, 6:00. I just spoke to my Alpine friend (need a name for her) and she's coming too. It is my belief that we can just show up and everything will work itself out... Right?
