Paul Petersen ran 2:20:31 and placed 55th at the Olympic Trials. He is my hero. It is fun to think back to 2007 when I was in New York running in the 2008 Olympic Trials with him. I didn't have a great day but Paul did. His race today is even more impressive to me. 4 years later and he is still rocking it. The guy is so humble and gracious about this sport. I look up to him a lot. I will miss running with him in Logan when I visit my in-laws. Congrats Paul!

Dogtown/Lots of hills run - Ran with Steve, Clyde, Dave and Justin today. We started at Dave's house and then went out into the fields, down by Stone Cliff, over Foremaster and then back around. We had some pretty conversation about topics that were quite delicate. I really look forward to running with the guys because it is a great place to just talk about life. Dave and I extended for another 5 miles to get 20 for the day. Nice way to end the week. Happy to get in 90 for week. 7:00/mile. Fair amount of hills today. Felt good for the little Quadsimodo.
