Ether 12:27 And if men come unto me I will show unto them their weakness. I give unto men weakness that they may be humble; and my grace is sufficient for all men that humble themselves before me; for if they humble themselves before me, and have faith in me, then will I make weak things become strong unto them.

I think there were 29 men and 20 women for this race there were all so more for a 6 mile race a 10 mile race and a 15 mile race plus a bike race.  I had a soccer game so I ran one of the short race.  All races started the same way. There was one guy who ran the 6 who took of like a bullet and 2 other guys that probably would have given me a lot to handle but they ran different races.  i haven't been on the dirt trails alot.  This one went 2 miles up corner canyon climbing a 1000+ feet and then back down.  The trails were a little hard to follow and I made a wrong turn and had a friend Crystal Shockley call me back over.  After that I just stayed right behind her until we broke off.  It took me about 19:50 to go up to Ghost falls and 12 something to come back down.  i really was flying on the way down.  I worried alot about breaking an ankle or going of the trail or tripping the race was a kick though.  The 2nd and third guys wwere 3 and 4 minutes behind and I took off to the soccer game before number 4 came in.  Hope to be able to do it again next year.
