Headed down Friday night to Draper to sleep at Spencer Simpson's place. Got up at the butt crack of dawn and headed to the Orem Soccer fields to meet up with the Awesome group above! Most of us car pooled in Scott Keate's van and headed to the start of the UVM course. 

Run was 3 mile warm 

15 mile progressive tempo 

splits- 558; 554; 603; 553; 553; 542; 550; 547; 537; 539; 537; 524; 516; 516; 519

2.10 cool back to Orem Soccer fields

Run went better then expected. With the first 2 miles I could feel some residual fatigue from the half in Ogden but as I got deeper into the tempo the legs responded and workout went excellent. It was great to have an awesome group of guys for the tempo, went way quick, and dont think I wouldve finished an effort like today solo.
