This is such a beautiful run down Snow Canyon, the temp was perfect and a good crowd out for this race. I was able to run with my Son Bryan and my Bro. Clay, this was Bryans first race. All three of us signed up for the runner's sieries this year so we would'nt have to go through the st. George Lottery for there marathon this year. We all have one more run which will be the Hurricane half in May and we should all be in the SGM.

The first 3 miles of this 10k was a wicked down hill steep and some sharp some uphills. I felt good through most of the race as my Bro. Clay was my rabbit and coach. The last mile and a half I was kind of loosin it but Clay stuck with me and was able to get a pr. My Son Bryan finished under an hour not bad for his first race with a little more training runs during the week he will be kickin my butt. All in all it was a fantastic race loads of fun and was way cool to have all the family waiting at the finish line.
