| I got to the buses at 530am and just missed the last bus heading up. I got on second group of buses and sat next to an old runner friend Josse! Got dropped off time 620 am and ran a mile to the starting line. I kept it very easy on pace for 2:00 pacer. About 30 seconds in some miles under pace for five miles then passing runners in last four miles as I was slowing told me that many runners go out way too fast. I slowed way down last four and walked through every aide station from the start. 8:47, 8:34, 8:34, 8:41, 8:39,8:38, 9:05, 9:06, 9:01, 9:24, 9:39, 9:44, 9:36, last 0.06 at 11:56 pace . Wasn't sure if my coros watch picked up all the mileage but I know its certified so obviously it didn't pick 0.04 miles probably the first mile. Came in on the clock at 1:58:50 (30 seconds behind start) But time on results say 1:58:20. lots of fun followers. hammy acted up first few miles down so I was glad I was not racing. Its been only two weeks since my right hammy tore at mile 7 of handcart half pacing. After about five days a huge bruise appeared at back of leg above knee 6 to 8 inches down from injury. Weather was perfect. cool breeze and cooler at start. 2nd in age as a pacer. I ran the hobbler half last year (July 12) in 1:34. I need to pick a half marathon to race in two weeks and then two weeks later. I won't have any speed work before the half in two weeks because I need hammy to heal completely. So I need to do another half to actually race it two weeks later.

Emergency bathroom break at Will's pit stop gas station At turnaround at mile five At the car waiting to see if Amber is going to come to put my phone down in the ground at mile 11 at the turnaround at mile 14 by my old house on the trail. Water break at mile 16 1/2 just feeling really hot. Again to get my phone out of the ground. Looks like I was pretty efficient. That's not a lot of time.

Place of Amber and Kyle's first look is lower parking. Sprinklers soaked the sit down place. Started right on time :D . Just a little hamstring hip pain left/tight. Went away after five miles. Kept it even effort under pace first 9 miles over pace last four miles. Course short 12.95 checked with others. Walked through three stations. Well put on race minus the bikers who were very rude, seeing there was a race asking people to get out of the way while going fast. Crazy. Paces : 8:04, 8:14 (potty) 7:58, 7:58, 8:07, 8:01, 8:02, 8:01, 8:03, 8:43, 8:32, 8:57, and last 0.95 miles 8:55 pace. avg pace 8:17. Met Debra Wing. we talked for five miles together. time flew. came in 1:47:10 as 1:50 pacer. Goal was 1:48:00 to 1:49:59 but race was short so I was a minute faster.

| Hike with Brooke after Layton temple session and breakfast salad at Kneaders. Really a salad but we hadn't had breakfast. 8:45 session. In car at `10:30 am. Shortened version but we took pics and looked up where we were going. WE on Adam's Canyon hike. 1.9 out and back from restroom. 2 hours 14 min with our stop at top. We got pelted with wind and some rain with looming t=storm clouds but they passed after we got through the switch backs and into the shade. PERFECT TIMING ! We almost turned back. Water fall was wonderful!! Steep in areas for sure. Shaded until falls and on way back sun was back out and it was toasty. Great views of Layton temple :D. we looked for a stream to soak our feet, reservoir blocked off small pond was too So we thought of vasa to change at since we were sweaty and had brought a change of clothes. Along our conveniently 1.5 miles to vasa when we searched for it we saw a splash pad with only two kids there so we joined them and changed in that bathroom after. We then went to the outdoor mall in layton :D. I was then really suddenly tired and needed more food so I got us a peach shake at chick fil a then we headed to pick up David after reading three in a series of creepy carrots/ underwear and crayons books and read them to each other. Laughing. We then ate out at this train station mexican restaurant which was delightful. Not too pricey and perfect portions. El Sabor I think. Headed back to Layton temple and Brooke got her car and they left and I left for home :D
