I guess I forgot to post any runs this week.... And I cleared the memory from my Garmin in prep of the Buffalo Run.

Today was my second ultra and the second time I've run over 26.x miles. We had no rain or snow (yea!) and cool to almost cold temps. 

I did not really have a time goal and that was maybe a good thing.  I finished about 15 minutes slower than last year.  I think this was good for 5th place in my graying beard age group (last year I was 4th).  I did have a goal to have fun- accomplished.  There were lots of nice people out on the course, some even laughed at my dumb jokes.  My mother and step father are in town and took my kids out to meet me at the finish, very nice for me, but cold and not as fun for the kids. 

Ave pace 9:49.  Ave heart rate 159.  I kept my heart race fairly constant through the race, though it started to fall a bit the last 6 miles.  My half split was about 2:25.   

Ogden is in 8 weeks.  I think I will take some recovery time and then work on keeping a faster pace.  I don't expect anything close to a PR at Ogden, hopefully I'll shoot for that if I get into St. George.
