Greg stayed over at my house and we headed down to Payson and caught the bus for the Nebo Half at 5:00am. Since my fitness isn't good and I am still hurt I wanted to run between 1:18 and 1:20. We got a warm up mile, Greg did a bit more, and hit the potties at the Payson Lakes camp ground. The first 9 miles was relaxed and at about 5:52 ave, and then my lack of fitness kicked in and I went 6:11, 6:24, 6:34, 6:23, and 6:28. Greg was kind enough to run the whole run with me too. Iended up being a good training run and I still placed 8th overall and 2nd in my age, and never was passed by anyone that I didn't pass back, so I will take it. Finished the half with a 1:19:44. Cooled down for 2 miles after. Greg made his a 20 milers. Legs are toast!
