8:50 am -  Today was the St. George 5k.  It was pretty fun and a good way to do my tempo run.  Me, Paul, Preston, and Cameron raced it.  I've been waiting forever to get my shirt for the race and it finally came.  We met up at 8 and warmed up 2 miles.  Then we got in our flats and took off our jackets n stuff.  It felt like a cross race and I've really missed that I realized.  

The race started with some stupid countdown that didn't even say go and I got in front quick.  The competition was revealed.  Some guy maybe 30 and a redhead guy maybe 40.  Me Paul and Matt (who jumped in the race after the start) were together for the first mile also with Rodney a guy who runs at Dixie state I think.  I was feeling great so I picked it up here and pulled away.  The guy in first was out of reach by the 2 mile but I maybe could have caught the redhead guy if I would have focused.  But I swore I heard the Rodney guy right behind me so that's all I could focus on.  My dad ran by me for a second in the middle of mile 2.  I finished 3rd and got 16:53.  I'm pretty happy with that for beginning of winter training.  But I still need to get my pace down for my LT tempo.  My goal pace for that was supposed to be 5:17 so I'm getting there.  After the race was really fun hanging out and stuff.
