Felt like garbage this morning on my run. Probably due to the fact that I was up until 1:30 taking care of a sick 3 year old. 

70 minute run.

Let the HILL RUNNING begin!!!

The Winter Circuit just isnt the same no more. Loved it when you could show up and have a good group of guys to run with. Don't get me wrong I love seeing everybody up there and talking to all the runners. But a couple years back it was an awesome showing from the FRB. You had Jon, Cody, Chad, Sasha, Paul and many others. I don't know the Circuit is great winter training and maybe thats how I should approach it.

Anyways now that I have pored my heart out. The race went really good, for me I am not a really good hill runner so I try to just position myself and hope for the best.

First mile all gradual up, managed a 5:28

second mile has 2 steep climbs and and a bombing section of downhill- 5:48

3rd mile has a little section of climbing but majority of it is down- 5:12

Overall time was 16:58. Good race for myself, but no the best. I guess a positive would be is that I managed about 20 seconds faster than last year.

Next race is in 2 weeks.
