I havn't felt all that great since I've been home from Cancun. So this wasn't my best race, but I'm happy with my time. It was fun to be able to volunteer again this year. I was afraid I wouldn't make to start in time. We sprinted over and just made it. I felt decent the whole time, just not fast. This race is fun because at the turn around you can see all the people ahead and behind you. I loved seeing all the people from our group. They did great. My splits were 7:47, 7:34, 7:34, 7:46, 8:03, 7:30 and 1:07 for the last .2.

I talked my 3 kids into running the 2.2 mile fun run. They didn't even complain about having to go an hour and 15 minutes early while I helped with the registration. They had so much fun running. My daughter Taylor (16) finished in 17:10 and took 3rd overall. Alex (14) finished in 19:07. Austin (10) finished in 17:43 and took 2nd in his age group.

It was fun knowing they would be there to cheer me on at the finish.

Thanks everyone for the comments. It was a fun day.

Bonnie- If I can get off work on the 24th I would love to run the Des News again. I love that race. How about you? Are you doing any Utah races this year?

Eric- Maybe that's my problem. I am missing Cancun way too much. :) I love Mexico. I want to go back. By the way. I just checked out your blog. HAPPY 40th BIRTHDAY. I hope you have a great day.
