Met the BBKs at Aaron's house.   A few of us ran a slow warm up for 2 miles.  Then we ran up and around Daybreak lake and back.  We ran some fast miles in the middle.  There were some good uphill climbs in front of the temple and up to the lake.  Average pace 8:39.  We had yummy pull aparts and chocolate milk after at Aarons.

5 mile warm up.  Average pace 9:14.  Then we did 5x800's with a 400 recovery between.  My times were way slower than I wanted.  Working full time and not sleeping enough is really affecting my running.  My 800's were 3:41, 3:46, 3:48, 3:44 and 3:43.  Then a cool down until I hit 10 miles.

Met the BBKs at the JRP trail in Riverton.  We warmed up for 4 miles.  Then we did a 40 minute (5.5 miles) tempo run.  My miles were 7:38, 7:34, 7:18, 7:11, 7:21, and 7:01 avg for the last .5.  Average overall for the tempo 7:23.  Then I cooled down until I hit 11.  It was cold this morning.  I'm glad I wore my arm warmers.

I wasn't nervous at all going into this race.  I sleep great until about 3:20.  I got ready and met Michelle N, Michelle M, Cheris and Debbie at Cheris' house at 4:00. 

The race started late again.  I guess they said they can't get enough people on the 5:00 busses and it throws everything off. 

I lined up with Cheris.  I knew I would never be able to stay with her, but I ran the first 1 1/2 miles with her.  From there on, I was on my own.  I had gu at miles 3 and 10. 

I really wanted to come in under 1:35.  I feel I pushed as hard as I could.  This was my test for what to shoot for at St. George. 

After I finished, I got my shirt and a drink and I walked backwards on the course until I found my sister in law.  I was able to run the last mile with her.  That was really fun.  One of these days I would love to pace her for a whole race. 

My splits on my garmin were way off from the mile markers on the course.  Here they are anyway.  6:50, 6:58, 7:08, 7:00, 7:07, 7:12, 7:28, 7:18, 7:29, 7:41, 7:44, 7:55, and 7:26.  I had the distance at 12.97 so I don't know how accurate these are.

It feels good to have the first 20 miler out of the way.  We started the run at my house at 6:00 this morning.  Cheris, Michelle M., Kevin, Aaron and I were there.  John met us at the hospital and ran the last 10 with us.  It was very windy.   I felt good, but I could tell my legs were pretty tired the last few miles.  Average pace 8:37.

I met the BBK's at Bingham.  We warmed up for 4 miles.  We planned on running on the track, but the gate was locked.  We ended up doing our speed work around the block North of Bingham.  Then we cooled down for a bit.  Average pace 8:48.
