Super smoky today but we ran the Orchards Days 5k in Santaquin anyway.  A couple fast guys, but Jaren and I did okay.  The 1 and 2 took off and beat us pretty good, but we took out the other two guys about half way.  i caught Jaren at about a mile and we ran the next 1.5 together and then he pulled away a bit on the last .5 of uphill.  I stayed close, about 5 seconds back and ended up 4th iwth an 18:23.  Mile warm up and cool down.

Up to the Cove and then back up and down.  One of my down miles was 4:59.  It rained all day alot and then it rained on us at practice, but it brought back all of the smoke.  Craziest weather I have ever seen!

I am sick and felt sick all night, probably shouldn't have run, but I did.  Ran the first 10 with Tim and Hunter, then the last 10 down to the Parkway solo.  I kept a decent pace, but I felt aweful and was destroyed when I finished.  I will be sore too!  6:52 ave

7:05 ave, last mile in 6:20.  Started slow up Butterfield Cayon and ended at the Jordan River Parkway on 12600 S.  First mile was 7:50.  Ran with Tim and his crew for about 6-7 miles.  Finished the rest solo.  Felt way better than last week.  The smoke was really bad today though.
