I only had time for 6 miles today, it was a good thing my legs are just whack. Not sure how well the race will go on sat, just try and do my best. It was a very nice day temps in the med 60's which made for a very nice run. We will see what tomorrow brings.

Nice race I really enjoy doinfg this one, I also had the opportunity to run this with my Son Bryan, and his Wife Katie. Also my Brother Clay ran with us or I shuold say by us like a bolt of lighting, he said he was injured but I think he was playing possum. My mile splits are as follows.

Mile 1. 7:28

        2. 7:48

        3. 7:31

        4. 7:51

        5. 7:54

        6. 8:04

          .2 6:42

The weather was great not to cold or to hot, I thought it was just right for me. Now that I have completed the runner series I should be in SGM for this year as long as I pay my $85 bucks. What an expensive sport this can be. I enjoy it so.
