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.

Slept terrible last night.  We w2nent to Draper Days to hear Collin Raye and it was a late night dinner wasn't the best.  None the less, Woke up at 5:45 started getting ready i used my supplements but no Advair.  I had my Alegra, Stomach med, afrin, Vicks, and my NO explode plus som extra creatine and argine and glutamine.  I also took so salt sticks because I have been cramping.

 

Ran 2.2 miles before hand got to the start and ready to go.  Felt a little tired but solid.  Ran my first mile in 5:51 last year my first half was way faster and I was tired this year I did better at not going as fast the 1st quarter and then maintained better.

Lots of fast runners today especially in the women's field I can't remember getting chicked so much.  2nd Mile in 6:01 Cam was ahead of me the whole way and I just stayed with him drifting between 2-6 seconds back.  Passed a few and got passed a little.  3rd Mile in 6:26 last bit in 37 secs.

It was fun to see alot of people from around town.  We left pretty quickafter I had to pick up Mikayla fro a girls camp.  So I don't know how I placed.  I feel like all the traing has left me a little fatigued but I am really just aiming towards St George and Hobble Creek.  I am planning on Desert News 10 K next week.  I guess this was a course best and a 50 second improvment on last year.  Oh well
