| Race: |
Lake to Lake Relay (Double Decker) (50 Miles) 06:40:00, Place overall: 11, Place in age division: 1 | | Leg 2
Started the day off by tripping into some cactus while trying to support Ross on Leg 1. Also saw Amanda (probably been over 14-15 years). Ran “conservative” and smooth.
5.17 miles/7:24 mi
Leg 4
One of my favorite legs of the whole relay. Passed a couple of people while still running a decent pace. Jake, Bruyn, and Mary-Kate supported, nice surprise.
5.14 miles/7:11 mi
Leg 6
Surprised how well my body held up with lack of training. My hernia/hip whatever issue was not an issue so that’s cool. I had a great tail wind pushing me forward. Marieta, Trey, and Mary popped by to support this leg.
3.77 miles/7:15 mi
Leg 8
Don’t remember seeing anybody on this run. My right IT started to flare up in the last 800. I was pretty nervous for leg 10 with my leg starting to hurt and I knew the wind was gonna be crazy.
3.92 miles/7:20 mi
Leg 10 (Wind of Death)
IT would flare up and then go away. Tried to run straight legged. Then once I climbed the hill to the reservoir things got insane. I got pushed around and sand blasted. Didn’t let up for about 4.5 miles. I just kept plowing ahead (slowly). I was nervous a 2 man team runner was close behind me but not the case. Once I hit the dyke the wind sent me flying for a good finish!
Overall I think this was my best L to L performance, even with a slow 10th leg. Ross and I were told we took 2nd but we actually won! Something about 2 man teams starting early and city workers not being able to do math or keep track of teams.
7.04 miles/9:01 mi

| | Going the Distance. Mental Toughness put to work this morning. I had to work through some hernia pain (from elevation, over use, and Zac Brown). I did my best to keep up with T Madison and the boys. My goal was to never walk and just keep the legs moving. When Tayson’s group flipped I selfishly still wanted to run so I kept moving. I wanted a new distance pr on this trail. Figured the varsity boys would catch me. When I turned around 40 minutes I saw Mama W, Terin, and Em. Ended up running with Em while Mama W ran with Terin. Em was crushing and I was doing my best to keep up. 3rd time she saved my run this week. After 80ish minutes went back out with Mama W and Holt to find Jake. Best run of the week.

| | 3:52AM- Tour de Bloomington.
Best run for my marathon training, just had to wake up early enough to get it in. Had a goal of hitting 2 hours starting out at 8 min miles and working my way down to lower 7s. Hit a 7:49 2nd mile and just kind of rolled from there. Wanted to negative split and have the last mile as my fastest. Think I hit all my goals. Turned the Bloomington Loop into a crazy tour of so many roads in Bloomington. Hit 14 miles at around 7:20 pace. Love the Endorphins for this run. Feel like next weekend will go well as long as I run to my training.
Almost cleared to run. Set a goal of only running the marathon if I was in the 170s. Hit 181 this morning.

| Race: |
St. George Marathon (26.31 Miles) 03:14:41, Place overall: 293, Place in age division: 37 | | Fastest STG performance (in my name). I'm very proud of my efforts today. My training was not what I wanted (thanks hernia recovery). My longest run before this was a 16 miler las week but I did the best I could with the mileage I put in. I also lost 20+ pounds which helped when bombing down the crazy of the course. Fueled really well this time and even carried my own icy hot for those later miles. I only started to cramp towards the last 3 miles but no complete shut down like previous years. Holt really helped me around mile 24 to stay positive and relaxed. Had short conversations with Bushars, Matt Searle, T-Madison, Joe Allen, and Erik Miguel along the way. Overall a positive experience!
