Deseret News Marathon Training

Remember a couple years ago when all of the Shields Family ran the 'Grant Shields Memorial Run?'  Well this year I am doing the full marathon.  I will run my heart out for you Granty Boy!  We finish at Liberty Park in Salt Lake City, so come out and cheer us on! 

I have been training with my buddy Logan since May for this race and it is almost here.  Logan and I did our last long run (18.5 miles) this week and I think we are ready.  I am going to just relax this last week (and play at Lake Powell instead).
