It was a nice morning for the race. It was cool as you'd expect in late October about 37' and a light wind as is normal for South Jordan. Taunia dropped me off just a little over a half mile from the start and I jogged to the start. Only had to wait about 10 minutes before the start.
I was thinking that this race was way to close to the St. George Marathon but I had a free entrance and it's my home town so I had to run it. After the first mile I felt great. I was hoping that a miracle had occured and I was totally recovered from the marathon. After 4 miles I was in 4th. It was about then that I could tell that my legs weren't as fresh as I'd hoped but still feeling good enough to finish well. I got passed around mile 7 and mile 10 to put me in 6th place. The last mile my legs were getting tired and complaining, but I finished well. I think the course was a bit short this year. they started up a hundred yards closer and the course was no different.
I just looked online and I came in 5th overall out of the 588 finishers. Now I'm doubting my abilitiy to count to 6.
