20 miles in 2:29:56. Circling around Sugar House.

It wasn't easy from a mental standpoint. Should have done an out-and-back on a mountain trail but couldn't swing it with family logistics.

Easy 7 in the gully before my runners arrived. Solid strength workout after plus some swimming.

Page 106 in John L. Parker's new novel about Quenton Cassidy has young Quenton beating Dunedin's Del Ramers in an 880. Ramers went to my high school and holds the school record in the mile (4:10 run in 1969) and went on to a solid career at Florida State.

If you google Del Ramers, Dunedin you can learn more.

10.5 miles at Alta Ski Area.

Beautiful up there today and I felt like running for hours but I'm racing Saturday and I'd like to have a little zip in my legs.

Four easy in the afternoon heat - which really wasn't that bad.

* Official race results may record an 18:00 time :-) I haven't seen them and can sometimes have a quick watch finger at finish lines.

Mile 1 - 5:48

Mile 2 - 5:36

Mile 3 - 5:55 (wimpy)

.1 - 40

Beautiful morning. Perfect race conditions. Raced fairly well but tucked in behind a runner from Ogden High School on the third mile when I should have pushed it a little harder. Fourth master I think behind Mark, Sasha, and Dennis. I know Dennis ran 17:30, not sure about Mark and Sasha.

2 mile warm-up and 7.5 miles in the gully on the way home.

Correction...Sixth master behind the guys I mentioned and some guys I've never heard of.
