Good times, talked to Ron to make sure the course would go around park, he sent me to the back of the pack for complaining. Started well, passed a few after first quarter, let Dell Cable and Cris James go, there was one guy who started off real fast that I really wanted to catch up to. Dell passed him around the park, I passed Schneider from East and stayed near Cris. Once we hit the road I was waiting for the turn-around to speed up but I should have gone with Cris, he sped up on the downhill so I really couldn't catch him. On the way back the HS kid kept looking back as I was gaining on him, I like the way I competed, came in a second behind him, maybe should have started sprint sooner, but couldn't catch him on some long straights. My time is actually comparative to when I won the race 3 years ago (17:54 but 100m longer). Dell 16:00, Cris 17:00 Played catch football afterwards, then lunch at church, talked with a guy from Box Elder and Olaf. Then TNT at parents. Matt came over, MI3, The Guardian, Philly Cheesesteak pizza.
Sun-nite late around Industry, right calf hurt. I pounded it out, did some broad and high jumps, calf got better, 1175 road, then Ward asphalt for some pick-ups. Good, hopefully don't need new shoes, we'll see. |
