Swiss Days 10k (6.2 Miles) 00:46:03, Place overall: 14, Place in age division: 2 | | A surprisingly good race considering I am coming off of the highest mileage of my life and the finish was a little higher than the start (well, a few inches higher) and there were a fair few hills! My start was very bad because we timed the warm-up poorly and got to the back of the pack right as the race started- so it took some time to get across the line and get around a lot of people- but the good thing was, it meant that I was passing people throughout the race, and that makes a race feel pretty good. I got a stein for my prize! And I went on an 8-mile cooldown with Bill and Jeremy. Bill gave me some good advice for my marathon. But, the cooldown felt a bit fast to me, which was fine I suppose. | |

| | Was going to do eight. Then thought, will it actually benefit my marathon? Well, I don't think so. So, I didn't do a small evening run. | |

| | Exchanged my shoes because the Nikes were hurting my feet. Guess I am not that narrow-footed. The run this morning went well! | |

Top of Utah Marathon (26.2 Miles) 04:15:42, Place overall: 317, Place in age division: 17 | | Well... I finished! I got sick, I am not sure what it was from, but I was still sick a few days later, so I suspect it might have been the flu. Anyway the point is, 12 potty breaks. And I was VERY GLAD that there were port-o-pottys every mile. I would give them 4 stars. By about mile 22 I had everything out of my system, hooray! So I was hungry but it was still the best part of the whole race because I didn't feel as sick. I was able to get up to a good pace and felt strong at the end when Bill ran with me. I will have to do another marathon now, because this one was all upside down... I'm pretty sure you're supposed to feel the worst at the end, but that was when I felt the best! | |

| | Got sick. Light-headed and very sweaty, saw spots and lungs constricted a bit. I am probably still sick, so I think I might take the next couple of days off. | |
