"Engaging in a little suffering — however self-imposed, arbitrary and contrived — before breakfast each morning tends to demand some humility and injects some marked relief into the rest of the day, making things sharper, more inspired, more immediately aware of the powerful presence of being. And that seems really worthwhile." A. Krupicka
"I cruised down hills, churned up hills, and floated over the asphalt, existing in a world that seemed to lack the confinements of such ubiquitous rivets as time, obligation, or pain. I knew then that this was destined to be one of those serendipitous runs for which so many of
us strive yet so rarely achieve." J. Nevels

Deseret News 10k (6.24 Miles) 00:45:42 | |
1/2 mile warmup. 10k (45:42). 4 mile cool down. good race for me. a pr (aided - lots of downhill). all my race time these days are both old man PR's and lifetime PR's as i don't have any PR's from when i was young. anyway, i figured to place in the top 20% as that seems to be my lot in life. based on past figures, i figured about 2,000 runners, so i tried to start behind about 400 people. i don't know the official results yet, but i must have been way off on my count because i steadily passed other runners throughout the whole course. i think that i can still improve my time a lot over the next couple of years. this was my first time running des news. good race. the weather was great, low 70's and overcast. after the race i saw fellow bloggers Walter, and Kam. also met for the first time Glidergirl, Catherine and Faceless Ghost. i was going to run back to the start at research park for a cool down but on the way out of liberty park i saw the shuttle bus and couldn't resist getting a ride back to my car.. on my drive out of salt lake though, i stopped at the capitol and ran a 4 mile cool down through the horse shoe and along 11th ave, then back. splits for race: 7:43, 7:12, 7:19, 7:10, 7:13, 7:20, .2@7:08 pace. WT 54.4 miles two twelve edit: my official time of 45:41.9 gets me 349/1945 overall (18 %), and 18/84 AG (21%) what did i tell you. i'm the 20% man. almost any race i run where i know the total number of runners i can pretty accurately guess where i placed using the 20% rule. however, if it weren't for the entrants that are just trying to finish the distance, or are entered to have an enjoyable walk, i would place somewhere around 50%. yipee mediocrity! lol.

12 miles / 9:20 avg. before work. meandered my way up to emerald park for a drink (7.5 miles) then took a more direct route back to work. started late (8:15 am) and it got pretty toasty. also there was some kind of mini triathlon going on, and they had the nerve to use parts of my running route for their event, so i got a little race environment vibe in the first part my jog. WT 52.4 miles two sixteen
