Ran with Steve, Rich, and Ben Kroft. We were doing the loop around the virgin river trails and I joking said we should tackle webb hill on the way around. Well, the others boys thought that was a great idea, so we looped up over webb hill which ended up being a beautiful sunrise on the peak. My quads were a little fried trying to keep up with those speed demons over the hill. Good run!

Tempo... sort of again!? The workout called for 3-5 mile repeats with 800 recovery. I didn't feel like this was a good week to push too much since I have a race this saturday. So I did 4x800 with 1 mile recovery along the virgin river trails. Two of the 800s were uphill. That was bad timing but my times didn't suffer. Anything under a 3:15 was the goal. Times: 3:15, 3:10, 3:10, 3:06

Rocky Mtn Half - I was a 1:45 pacer. Sound like an easy one? No! Lots of uphill and elevation at 8k. Great race and beautiful scenery! I tied for 1st overall in masters with the other pacer with me.
