| Ran the fence line around the treatmnet plant property (hilly & technical). I got sratched up pretty good, and drove a cactus needle through my little right toe. I found two places the fence needs to be repaired and a broken water line that was gushing lots of water. I would say my perimeter inspection run was a success. | | Add Comment |

| I was not in the mood to run this race today. If I had not paid for this I would have gone to breakfast instead. Cathy dragged to the starting line. I forgot my garmin so I had no desire to try. I ran easy from the start. I swear the entire race field passed me in the first 2 miles. My body is also very crossfit sore and every step just killed my abs and gluts. By mile 6 I actually felt like running. That was the first hill and I started passing large groups of runners. I was so fast going uphill. I just about caught everyone that passed me earlier. I'm very happy with my run. Glad I showed up today. | | Add Comment |
