Race: Draper Trails 4 Mile Race (4.08 Miles) 00:32:51, Place overall: 1, Place in age division: 1
Total Distance

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.

Went long with Camdog.  We started at my house down to Draper park and then out on the trail to Sandy and back made good time and HR was 143/152 time was 2:05;21 for 16.05 plus we had the potty break in that time.  Way fun to run with a partner on the long run.

First one I did prety quick then slowed down.  Then I lifted on the chest for an hour.  My back is super tight.  I think I screwed something up.

Race: Heart of Holladay 5K (3.1 Miles) 00:18:55, Place overall: 11, Place in age division: 2

5 K in Holladay plus 2 mile warm up and 6 mile cool down  HR 167/178.  What can I say I got chicked 4 times.  I didn't feel to bad about Michelle Lowry and Amber Andrews.  But the other two I should have got.  Oh well it was a good race day I think that is a official Utah PR and 19:32 was my previous time back in 06 although it was a different course it wa largely the same..  My hr last time was 182/191 so it makes me think I could try a lot harder and I still have lots of room to improve.  Temps were cool though.  i wonder if a lot of the good runners were in Utah county for the races down there.
