History will be made here

On my way up to the Utah Valley Marathon.  It turns out that history is going to be made.  There are 13 Footbikers registered for the race, and that makes the greatest number of Footbikers ever to be assembled at one time to race in the United States.  Now to some of you, our European brothers and sisters, it may not sound like much, but for us here in the States…it’s a HUGE deal. 

Weather conditions look good.   Should be sunny, and in the 60′s during the race.  Probably in the high 40′s at the start, but there is no rain in the forecast.  I have heard various reports from those who have kicked it in the past, that it is a fast course, sometimes maybe too fast. 

I’ll pick up my race packet this afternoon, meet some of the other racers, and then off to bed.  Getting picked up at 5 a.m. by my nephew, who’s running the half marathon, and shuttled to the start which is at 6.  Stay tuned for race commentary and results as they happen.  Now it’s time to go and show them what we are all capable of on these fantastic machines.
