Total Distance
13.00

Headed down to St. George to run the second of our two races in the runner's series to get into the St. George marathon.  It's not really worth going all the way down there for a 10K, but we didn't have much choice since there is only one race left after today's and it is the Saturday following Boston.  Anyways, I was quite pleased with my race today, as I haven't come close to running this fast in about 5-6 months....and this seemed like a pretty honest course with a lot of rollers and a really crappy climb from mile 4-5.  I missed fourth place by about 1/2 a second, but oh well.  Splits:  6:06, 5:51, 6:09, 6:10, 6:55, 6:30, 0:29.  The course was just a bit short.

Warmed up 4 and cooled down 3.

I'm sure you found other things to do there besides just run a 10k right?

Congratulations on the really solid time.

Hey Rob. We were under pretty tight time constraints so we didn't do much down in St. George. Which was too bad cause the weather was awesome.

Nice job on your half. You seem to be getting in to good shape. I'd almost be willing to pay you to come pace me to a sub 1:20 half sometime this summer.
