It was a good run. I liked the new course. Set a PR. My previous record for the Spectrum 10k was 46:06. I wish I would have ran those first couple miles a little bit faster. The third place runner in my age group was only 40 seconds faster. I did pass about 4 guys in the last mile which felt good. Next year I'll have to try for 43 minutes.

We went to the movie "Horton Hears a Who" afterwards. The girls really liked it.

After the movie my 8 year old wanted to go to Snow Canyon High school and run on the track. I ran a couple laps with her then my right hip started to hurt and my calves felt tight so I stopped. She ran two more laps. Can't wait for the day when she can run the Spectrum 10k with me.
