So . . . my first leg was #11, 3.4 which is the climb up into snow basin ski resort. This thing was pretty hard, but not as hard as i thought.  I felt good the whole time, thill the last mile that was down hill.  It destroyed my calves and legs. :( but i ran it as hard as i could and was just as fast as the BYU guy.  My next leg 7.6, i got out good pace right at 5:50, way under the predicted time, then my legs gave out, and i basically ran it kinda easy the rest of the way. I was pissed!!!  My last leg i went down the hill at about 5 flat pace and was feeling good till about mile 3, my legs were killing and i slipped and fell around a corner and pulled my leg, i got up and ran on it a bit and felt it was pretty bad, but i could make it.  At this point in time i had a choice, run really fast now and get a great time, but i wouldnt be able to run for probibly a week, or just chill and finish.  I chose the second and walked most of the hill then jogged into the exchange.  So i had a great time, not to well on the running part, but i did get closer with my team mates and that means a lot as the team captain.

Season total: 114.6

You guys did awesome. Wasatch Back is quite an experience--a real team builder. All of the XCers that ran it are overflowing with guts. And, if you were keeping up with the BYU guy, you were flying. When those guys ran by, I just stopped and watched. The 26.2 guys were flying too. The 26.2 guy who ran the 2nd leg that you ran, the one along the lake, must have had about 250 kills on that stretch alone. It was all we could do to stay with him in the car. I'm sure people thought the same things about you guys. Hope to see you at practice once in a while. Paz.
