The kids did a down hill speed mile in the morning that was down High country, I didn't run with them because I was timing. Chris was first with a 4:54. About 1:00pm we did a run down into Lava town. It drops from 7200 feet to 5200 feet in about 5.7 miles the drops another 100-200 feet in the next 3.5 miles and has a lot of rollers. It was hot too. Allison aided us several times with water stops. I ran with Dillon, Chris, and Alex most of the way and we finished together. We ditched everyone else along the way and finished with a 58 minute run for the 9.1 miles (6:25 average). We waited for everyone to come in, which took a long time, had lunch, then hit the pool for three hours. This was a tough run that I will be sore from. The kids thought it was brutal!
