Won an entry into the Haunted Half from Utah Running Guide.  Probably the only reason why I ran this morning.  Knowing my fitness is way off, I decided to run the first couple of miles faster then hang back with Becky for the rest of the run.  Was just behind Tara for the first 2 miles (she was pacing 1:30).  Slowed down and let the 1:35 pacers catch up.  Becky was running with them.  She started to slow and once we hit the uphill section through the U, her knee started causing problems.  She walked the hills and I ran with Bill (1:50 pacer).  At the top of each hill, I wiould stop and wait for her.  Once all of the uphills were done, she was fine and was able to finish well.  I had to make a pit stop at mile 11.5 and really had to work to catch back up to her.  We crossed the finish line at the exact same time (despite her sprint at the end trying to beat me).

Were your chip times the same? You should have let her win, you bully.

They had timing issues so I'm not sure about the chip times. You are not the first to point out that I have become a mean bully. I guess it is something that I need to work on.

Kam! Don't kick a dog that's already down! We have to gentle with our friend so he'll run with us again! Btw Kam, you've been quiet.

Andy- Are you sore? I kind of am.
