Hurt so good.

Met up with Dave, Riley, Albert and Jonny Boy at Lees Market in North Ogden. Guys were nice enough to head north because my wife had to work early so I had to get back.

Run was pretty casual the entire time. The last 5 miles or so we picked up the pace I got three miles in around 6:18 to 6:00 min/pace and had to slow up. I have developed a morning cold I wake up and have no voice and for the entire run I was either spitting mucous or farmer blowing it out, breathing was just way off today. Hoefully it will be gone next weekend so I can have a good race down south.

avg pace was 7:01 min/miles

P.M

Did the glow in the Dark 5K with my entire family. Race was way fun and chilled. I had no goal in mind since 2 miles of the run is on the trail and this was the race last year that I hurt my knee on so I was being was cautious. Race started and the first .90 is all down then it jumps straight to the trail. Plan was to run the road hard get the gap I needed before the trail and then slow it way down. First mile was 5:10. I was watching my pace on the down hill and I was around 4:36 pace for majority of it so that was fun to see. Next two miles were chilled on the trails 5:40 and 5:46 last .10 was down hill finish and it was around 15 seconds or so. Fun race will do it again. Was impressed with my kids though. Both my 7 year old and 4 year old ran the entire race. Then I did almost a mile cool down with my 7 year old. It was a proud father moment. Shout outs to my wife, mom and dad and my Baby bro and his wife for all running as well. It was a Van Beekum affair.
