Just some hiking and walking today. Out to Delicate Arch in Arches NP and then around the neighborhood when I got home.

Winter series 5k this Saturday followed by the 10k and 15k after that. More thoughts on that later.

Race: SLTC Winter 5k (3.11 Miles) 00:19:20, Place in age division: 1

I made it out to the Salt Lake Track Club's Winter 5k after taking last year off. My goal was to break 20 minutes for the first time in forever and I ran 19:20 - so that's good. Splits were 6:16, 6:10, 6:13, 43. Makes me think I can break 19 minutes again because I wasn't really racing that hard.

I thought I won my age group so I have awarded myself 1st place here on the blog. Bill Cobler beat me by 1 second even though he finished a couple minutes behind me. Decided to do the awards based on chip time rather than gun time and apparently Bill had a hard time making it to the start on time. It's frustrating to lose to a person when you finish a few hundred yards in front of them.
