SLC Half marathon, missed 6:40 trax so showed up late to race, ran through to long zone of passing people, was 30 at 3 miles (long downhill where cruised by people), figure was 10 minutes off, passed 2:45 thru to 2:00 pacers. Was 51 at 7 miles, missed Temptation Station, think I would have taken a shot if I knew what it was, a little after 8 miles cut across to Liberty park and ran there. Went from passing droves to sparsely being passed by maybe 10. Figure, 8 1/4 plus 3/4 plus 1=10. Got to my truck at 8:30 so 1:20 for 10? Ran to my truck and then to Bible Study. My dad biked the course and said he was severely cold with gloves not thick enough, people laying on side in the cold. Mark ran 1:42, great job, always bragging about being 217, not 265.
