The plan was to run the Donner Monument route, but about 2.5 into it I ran into the Woods and company out for a short run. I ran with them back to Steiner where they started and Jwood agreed to join me for a few more miles. So we ran and talked about politics, etc. We ran back to his house and I continued home from there. Nice way to mix it up this morning.

Also, here's a photo of the Spanish Fork race from last weekend. As I was running Heather into the finish, this kid sprinted ahead of her to beat her at the last moment. As you can see, I did not hide my disappointment in watching this happen!

If it makes you feel any better, the kid is overpronating badly. I'm surprised his knee is not popping out of his body. Along with dirty looks from you, he may also experience PF, knee pain, or back pain within the next year. So he may have won the battle, but not the war!

Paul, I noticed the same thing about the overpronation. I'm not sure who he'll need to see first, a podiatrist or an orthopedic surgeon.

Nice photo. The kid was in the "zone". Right there everything was just clicking while "Eye of the Tiger" was pounding in his ears. You go 134 and nice shades too.

I love when people try to hot dog at the end of their 32 minute 5K. He must have had Eye of the Tiger on his IPOD!
