No motivation today, La Verkin Loop to 200 North then home.

Ran to Cholla Creek and then back home. 1 mile this evening.

Basketball this morning

10 miles out on 600 North to Hole #13 and back home.

This morning I decided to run the Utah Summer Games 10K.  The last time I did this race was in 2008 and I ran 34:53 (5:36). Well the last 7 years have not been good to my running times.  Today I was almost 10 minutes slower. However, I'm glad I decided to race and this gives me a good starting point for my summer of training.

1 mile warm-up with Scott

1- 6:38- Good start lots of people took off really fast, so I was happy I stayed under control.

2-6:27- Still feeling pretty good and passing quite a few people

3-6:44- Another good mile

4-6:52- This mile I started struggling, and was really wishing this race had only been a 5K

5-7:42- Stopped at the aid station and walked for awhile.

6-7:25- The last mile was a struggle.

.2-1:47

43:38 (6:59)

This was a pretty difficult run today.  My legs were really sore from the race yesterday.  I ran out 4.5 mile to Toquerville up Spring Drive then back home.  I stopped and soaked in the creek for awhile on the way back.
