Striders Winter Series 10 mile race. The first 6 miles follow the 10k route, then the last 4 loop south and east of the Dee Events Center. Lots of hills. After the race a young guy thanked me for motivating him. He would run past me then walk and I would pass him. With a short distance to go, he passed me for good. He said he couldn't face losing to an old guy. It made me smile. Two weeks to go until the Antelope Island Buffalo Run, my first 50k of the year.

Mizuno Wave Rider Miles: 10.00

Way to go. That is a tough course. See you in a couple weeks. Should be fun.
