Greg came to my house and we ran up to the Res and up the ridge to the top, over the other side and back on Rosecrest.  It was a bit muddy on the trail and that slowed us down, but still a touch run up and over the mountain.  8:19 ave

Blackridge Trail 5k this morning.  This is where I jacked my knee up last year, which bytheway is not a 100% still.  I said if it wa raining I wouldn't run, it rained all night instead.  I wanted to be very careful and didn't really even care what pace I came in.  I warmed up a mile before the race.

The race had a few more fast people this year.  It was a muddy mess, not sure how long it will take that trail to recover.  I stayed back and just ran, I wanted to be safe.  Even at that I had some close calls.  I ended up 8th overall and 3rd in the age and I didn't even care.  I should be able to make up time in the 10k and especially the Half Marathon if I am healthy.  Staying healthy was the goal!  25:28 for the 5k.

Cooled down with Stockton afterwards.
