Ran the road half with the younger boys. Since I’m taking it easy on my legs I figured I might as well clean up some dog poop left on the field. 3 miles
AM- Turf and Tea. Ran with Ada, Addilyn, and Lydia to get caught up on the tea. Then caught up to the rest of the girls down to the Dino Wash. Talked with Vanesa on the way back. 3.47 miles
PM- Like the way things are going after thinking my body was broken for a little bit. Threw in some light speed and had to work with some head wind. Out towards Wal-Mart and back. 3.29 miles
Top of Zion (1.6 Miles) 28:45:30, Place overall: 4, Place in age division: 1

Top of Zion: Leg 1. Got the party started by myself (we were the only team that started at 7. I ran pretty well. Really took advantage of downhills and flats. Back was hurting on the roughest uphills. I wrote my 2015 splits down on my hand so I knew when the fast and slow miles were. It really helped me be successful. 9.4 miles / 1:15:03 / 8:00 minute pace
Leg 13. Hot and nauseous. My easiest leg and I blew it. Had no energy even though I had like a 10 hour recovery from leg 1. I really liked this leg but it was a struggle. I’ll blame the heat and the fact that I needed to take a spooky dooky 👻. 7.13 miles / 58:35 / 8:13 minute pace
Top of Zion (6.95 Miles) 28:45:30, Place overall: 4, Place in age division: 1

Leg 21. Reverse Bryce. Ran the most fun stretch of Bryce Canyon Half backwards so it was the opposite of fun. I was surprised how many cars came cruising by me at 1 in the morning. Proud of my efforts and that I didn’t walk. Felt so much better than my 2nd leg. 6.95 miles / 1:03:31 / 9:08 minute pace
