| Ragnar trail relay in Snowmass with Amiee, Noah and Ricky Gates. We DNF'd because we didn't want to run in the ultra division and only had 4 runners. Now that I have run both road and trail Ragnar relays I don't ever need to run another one again. There is more appeal to the trail version, at least for me, because you aren't stuck in a car and can socialize more with your team and other entrants. We played music with Ricky's instruments (guitar, acordian, ukulele and huge bell). I pretended to play the ukulele.

Wahsatch Steeplechase (16.5 Miles) 02:11:03, Place overall: 1, Place in age division: 1 | Easy Miles | Marathon Pace Miles | Threshold Miles | VO2 Max Miles | Crosstraining miles | Total Miles | 0.00 | 16.50 | 0.00 | 0.00 | 0.00 | 16.50 |
| The Wahsatch Steeplechase! And first real race since SGM last year. I haven't been that motivated to keep my miles up enough to run marathons but I have been keeping in shape with shorter and much steeper runs near home.
Apparently it paid off because I finished first overall against some stiff competition (Nathan Peters, Andrew, Daniel, John Tribbia) and set a new CR by 30 seconds and bettered by PR by over 3 minutes. I am happy with the result because it affirms that I can still get out with the leaders and should have lots of fast races left in me, whether it be road or trail.
I have said this before and I will say it again, the Wahsatch Steeplechase is the coolest race around. It has a home town feel, it attracts good runners, the organizers are super awesome and there isn't a course I can think of that compares. It has something for everyone, i.e. uphill road, smooth flat trail, ridiculously steep uphill trail, jumping/climbing over crags on cliffs, ridiculously steep downhill and then it finishes with fast miles on the road down City Creek Canyon. FUN!

| Started out in about 5th place but the 1100 ft up in the first mile kicked my butt. Got passed by a few before the top then did my best not to crash on the way down. Cool event and course and the competition was incredible. Hales finished 2nd behind an Olympus nordic skiier.
3 early with Roo and cooled down with Andrew.
