Bryce Canyon Half Marathon.  1:20:40 on 4 weeks of training.  10th overall and 2nd Master.  It was decent for me considering, but I really didn't have the legs to do much better.  Lots of work to do.  Fun weekened with my oaches and our spouses.

Ran the time trial with the kids.  Legs still sore from Bryce, and now it is the hammies!  Ran the 3.15 miles in 19:48 6:16 ave.  Ran behind Jaren and Preston, most because I wanted to keep them honest and I had no legs to go around.  2 mile cool down

Ute Stampede.  Ran in 3rd most of the race, at least from mile 1 on.  Jaren came back on a kid and won on a last second kick!  It was fun to see him work on the kid the whole race and come from behind to win!

Nice mornng, but a bit humid, especially during the run.  No legs today, which I figured.  actually got passed by 3 people in the middle of the race, two of them in my age.  Slow 10k for me, but still fun, ad it was good to get Jaren through a 10k.
