WRC 5K OGDEN
Well first race of the Ogde Winter Racing Circuit went well. I wasnt planning on running it this year but I entered a contest at Mckay Dee Hospital and WON! So they are sponsoring me through the circuit and got me into the Ogden Half Marathon in May.
Anyway I showed up way early so I get my shirt and stuff together and as I was getting ready to warm up I realized I forgot my watch. So today was all off of feel which is fine sometimes racing that way is better. Managed to get roughly 2.5 miles in for warm.
For the race I saw James Moore, Jed Johannson, Nick Fischer and that was pretty much it. As the gun went off I took off and tried to attack the first mile to get a solid cushion so I could take it easy on the hills. But as I got to mile 1 I took a peak back and Nick was about 10 seconds back so I pushed the hill and attacked the down hill portion as I got to mile 2 I couldnt see him anymore. 3rd mile went pretty fast and sprinted in for the 16:45 finish and a new PR on that course.
Its crazy the last 3 times I have raced the 5K I have been pretty close in time every year.
