Met the BBK's at Bingham.  Warmed for 3 miles with Walter and Kris.  It was fun to hear about Moab 1/2.  Then back to Bingham for the main workout.  Mike had a great interval workout planned for us.  We warmed up for a mile and then started.  The super speedy guys got ahead and so Kelli, Nancy R. and I just kept a semi fast pace just trying to catch up to them.  It was a great run.  Kelli and Nancy were great to run with and the time flew by.  About a quarter mile from the cars I rolled my ankle.  It hurt really bad, but I don't think it will keep me from running at all.   My mile splits were 9:23, 8:37, 8:32, 8:47, 7:55, 8:07, 7:40, 8:09, 7:49, and 8:13.  Average pace 8:20.

I love these hometown races where I can show up 15 minutes before the start. 

I decided to start with Michelle M. and Dean.  Their plan was to start slower and pick it up as they went.  I knew I wouldn't be able to keep up with them, but it was it great to run with them as long as I did.

1- 8:09 Planned on running slower, but the pace felt easy.

2- 7:57 Same

3- 7:44

4- 7:50 big hill in this one

5- 7:46  had a gu just before the water stop.  Saw Kelli and Rachael at the stop.

6- 7:32 I watched Michelle and Dean fly down the hill.  No way I could keep up.  I saw Taylor's XC Teammate Michael going up the big trail hill.  He looked strong.  I figured he'd pass me back after the hill.

7- 7:46

8- 7:44 I saw Cheryl and Michelle in this mile cheering us on.  I loved seeing everyone from our group.  It helped a ton.

9- 7:52

10- 8:10 I could feel myself struggling here.  My stomach was really hurting. 

11- 8:29 We were running into the wind.  It really took a lot out of me.

12- 8:09 I got passed back by two girls I had passed a little earlier.  I wish I was more competitive.  I really didn't care that they passed me.  One of them was in my age group too.

13- 7:52 So glad to almost be done.

.1- avg pace 6:43

I wanted a 1:43, so I am happy with my time.  It was a very organized race.  Our group wore blue and salmon colored ribbons in honor of Lisa's husband who passed away 3 weeks ago.
