I'm really happy with how this race went.  I think this was my 8th time running this race and I got a new PR today.

Cheris, Michelle M. and Aaron met at my house at 4:10 to carpool to Mapleton.  At the top, we warmed up by running farther up the road and back.  I think that helped.  I wanted to get under 1:35 and I felt strong the whole race.  I had Gu at miles 3 and 10.  Just like at Hobbler 1/2, I had 2 Immodium when I woke up and 1 more an hour before the race.  I also took Ibuprofen at mile 10.  No stomach issues again.  That makes all the difference in my racing. I had a pork salad from Cafe Rio the night before.

My splits from my Garmin were: 6:42, 7:07, 7:10, 7:06, 7:02, 7:05, 7:19, 7:07, 7:20, 7:28, 7:36, 7:20, and 7:31 pace for last .97   

I really want to get under 3:30 at St. George.  I need to start getting more miles in.

Great job! I don't like Cafe Rio. It's too sweet. Who wants a sweet burrito? Not me!

Thanks Burt. The pork is delicious. What are you thinking? :) I like that it's sweet so I don't need to use any salad dressing.
