I set a new personal record on this course by 1 second.  :)  I wish I had known I was so close to getting below 46:00.  I'm sure I could've made up that time at the 5 mile water stop.  (I took a little too long there getting my drink down).  It was very windy going North.  I hate running in the wind.  Other than feeling like I might throw up for the last 1.5 miles, I felt good.  My ankle didn't bother me at all.   It was fun seeing so many familiar faces.  I passed two ladies in the last 1/4 mile.  The both ended up being in my age group.  I always feel a little guilty about that, but hey it is a race.  Jerry took 2nd in his age group with a time of 41:31, and Taylor was the overall winner in the 2.2 mile run with a time of 15:27.  Next year I'm going to make her do the 10k.  It was fun day.  My splits were 7:26, 7:02, 7:25, 7:32, 7:58, 7:31 and 6:26 for the last .20.

I ran the first 7 miles with Lisa and Kris, then 2.5 more on my own.  My legs were a little tired from the race.  I also did 30 minutes of Yoga.  Time to start officially training for St. George.  Woo Hoo.  Average pace 8:39.

I met the BBKs at Bingham.  We warmed up 3 miles.  Then we went to the track and did one more warm up mile.  Then Peggy had us do a fast 400, 600 and 800 with a 200 recovery after each one.  Then we did a 2 mile tempo on the road.  We came back to the track and did (I think) 3 fast 200s with 200 recoveries after.  Then we cooled down until 10 miles.   Average pace 8:36.

Met the BBKs at Peggy's house and carpooled up to the Avenues.  We started at the park accross from Shriners Hosp.  We ran down 11th avenue and then went up City Creek for a short time.  Then we ran down to Memory Grove.  We ran up the stairs and started the climb back to the cars.  We ran up and over each block, pushing hard on blocks going North.  Then Michelle M., Cheris and I ran until we hit 9 miles.  My knee has been kind of bugging me ever since.

My knee was very painful when I woke up.  I took some ibuprofin and decided I would at least walk.  It ended up feeling fine to run.  I took it easy.  Average pace 9:24.

Met the BBKs at the Riverton trail head.  We warmed up for 3.8 miles.  Then we did a 25 minute tempo run.  Average pace for that was 7:13.  I felt like puking at the end.  Then we recovered for a few minutes, and finished with another 10 minute tempo (6:58 pace).  Then cooled down.

I met Cheris, Michelle M. and Kris to run the Riverton 1/2 marathon course at 5:30.  About a  mile into the run, we had a car that passed us, flipped around and headed straight for us.  It was crazy.   We had to jump onto the sidewalk to get out of the way.  We all felt like they were really trying to hit us. 

Anyway, we ran the first 7 miles slow.  Then we tried to pick it up for the last 6.5.  Our final mile was a 7:10.  Overall average pace 8:32.

We started at Dimple Dell and ran South to 12300 and up to Wasatch Blvd.  We ran out 8.5 and back.  The first half just flew by.  I felt tired the last few miles, but it was good.  My stomach really started to hurt when I finished.  It was upset most of the day.  I may have let myself get dehydrated.  I carried 2 gatorades and 2 waters, but didn't drink much of the 2nd water.  I also had a gu at mile six.  Average pace 8:51.
