Ran in Silverton, did two by 400 in 85, 86. It wasn't as hard as I was expecting, but it felt weird. Running here is actually preferable to running in SLC. It is cooler and has better air quality.

Started at just shy of 11000 then gained about 500ft in 3 miles. It was really tough. I ran the first 5k in 31:30. Ran that 5k portion in about 21 minutes on the way down.

Race: Layton Classic (6.1 Miles) 00:36:45, Place overall: 4
Total Distance
19.50

First race: Layton Classic. As a race it was pretty uneventful, I was in 4th pretty much the whole way. I knew that I had a shot at sub 37 as long as I hit 3 miles in 18:30. I came through in 18:32, but I still managed it somehow. My legs felt pretty dead at about 4 miles, but I held it together ok.

Splits:5:36,6:27,6:29,5:44,5:46,6:41 for the last 1.1.

That's right, I think the classic is about .1 short in the last mile. Every year I seem to run a ridiculous split for the 6th mile, which is slightly uphill. According to garmin,gmaps and the course tool, it is 6.1. There is simply no way I ran 5:34 pace the last mile. That also explains how I consistently run close to my Des News time here.

Anyway, despite the shortness, it doesn't make up for the hills. Course tool says this is worth about a 36:15 for a flat 10k. To put this in perspective, that's the same pace as my best 5k this year. I'm not totally suprised by this though. I feel like the worst part of every race is about from mile .5 to mile 2.5. It's during this part that my heart seems to have trouble finding the right pace. After that, everything seems to settle in for a while.
