9 miles with Bill and Scott out to Sandhollow to watch the Ironman swim.  I felt pretty good coming back from the dam.  Came home then did a 3 mile loop down through Pah Tempe.  Decided to do another 2 miles when I saw Ben Ashcraft running up the Twist.

Did a 1 mile warm-up to the start line with Cody, Art, and Scott.  A little chilly, but no rain.

Well, that didn't last long just as soon as I took off my warm-ups and put all my clothes in my drop bag the rain began and didn't let up the entire race.  At some points it was really heavy and the temps were also some of the coldest I've raced in.  However, even though I couldn't feel my legs for half of the race I still managed a decent time.  I was just frustrated that I never felt like I got into a rhythm or that I was ever really racing.  I just felt like I was going through the motions.  This was a lot better race than two weeks ago at Southern Utah Half.

Sunny dropped me off on Washington Parkway and then I ran down through Hell's Canyon and over to Sullivan Park, then along the bike path and back up to Biolife. The first part of the run I ran a little faster, then slowed down climbing the hills.

Basketball this morning and the I ran up Pah Tempe Canyon 3 miles to the large swimming hole.  I took a nice dip in the river for about 10 minutes.  The water is still pretty cold.  I then continued on the other side of the river up to the La Verkin Twist and then down on the trail.
