Good paced run up in North Ogden. Ran the Half with Jon Heslop and both of us went out @ 6 min pace and held conversation the whole entire run. We ended up crossing the finish at the same time and split the $100 cash prize. Race was pretty tough for the most part. In the first 4 miles there was over 1500 feet in climbing. Why? Good question! It was brutal but fun at the same time to run a race in my own back yard.

Cooled down with Jon and Taylor Monson

Spencer I feel ready. I am on a good upswing right now and adding these 10-13 mile runs under 6 min pace is helping aerobic fitness a ton!
