We Have a Winner!!!!

The results of the St. George marathon lottery were announced today. Of the 8,850 applicants, I found my name among the 6,900 chosen!

This is exciting and overwhelming at the same time.

I entered in a group along with Alex Thurman and some of his friends. I'm not sure if they've cracked the lottery winning code but diversity seems to be a common theme. This will be Alex's third run at St. George (2003 and 2006). Each time he's applied as part of a group. They've always included a first-timer and a woman in their group and they've always been selected. Our group had my Texas address as the first-timer and one of the guy's sister-in-law from Utah. The other three are from California.

This should be good!
