I ran a 6 mile loop in the heat. Saw the PV boys doing there D.I. warm-up. I'm glad I was able to run 6 in the heat because I have only been able to run like 3 or 4.
I prepared all day to run this long because I was worried about if I could even last it. I got and out and felt alright at first but I just kept tightning up everywhere and my achilles was hurting. It was a really brutal run.

Total Distance

Got to Bryce Canyon after killing a deer (by truck) the night before. I didn't know how this race was going to play out because I was feeling terrible before it. I wore my dads St. George Running Center shirt because he wasn't going to. The gun went off and I took the lead first thing. It ended being really a 2 man race between me and this high schooler. I hated the altitude, uphill and everything about this race except for the fact that it was shorter than 5 miles. So I finished 2nd overall, something I haven't done yet for a road race.
time: 31:01.3 (6:12 min/mi)
PM: I got out really late because I wanted to reach 30+ miles per week now.
