There are pluses and minuses to being married to a massage therapist. Plus- your spouse can massage places (that really need it) that a normal massage therapist would probably get arrested for massaging, (at least in Utah). Or you'd get arrested for asking :). Minus- it's like pulling teeth to get a massage, sometimes it would be easier to just fork out the $65 at a spa than dealing with all the fighting and anguish of asking your wife for a favor. Anyway I convinced Britt to work on my "problem areas" last night which seemed to help quite a bit. Tried to keep a slow pace but just wanted to get through my run, so I kept a pace that seemed like it wasn't pulling anything, legs were pretty sore and I can tell I've lost some fitness over the last 2 weeks, my lungs were burning, which my lungs never burn, but I made it through. Forgot my watch today.

I just signed up for St. George Marathon, basically been training for it now for 2 1/2 years but I'm a sure in this year, 3rd times a charm. I'm going to put it all out on the line for St. George, everything else is just build up.
