Endure and persist; this pain will turn to your good. - Ovid
Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we rejoice in the hope of the glory of God. Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us. - Romans 5:1-5

| Draper Days 5-k. Course is good downhill first mile, flat to slight uphill 2nd mile, and slight downhill last mile. All-in-all a fairly fast course. This was a pretty good race for me, my best Utah 5-k time. I managed to kick very hard and pass Demetrio Jr. in the last 400m. HR ave for entire race ~183. Mile Splits/HR 4:39/170 -- out hard, but low HR, so not too hard 5:14/186 -- working harder now 5:14/189 -- estimated, didn't get split 0:31/196 -- all-out kick; estimated split | | Add Comment |

| Deseret News 10-k. I'm doing all these races in SLC this summer for the USATF LDR circuit. Living in Logan, it means that I have to get up around 4AM, drive 85 miles, run for 15-30 minutes, and then drive home, all before 9AM. Sometimes things go wrong. Such as today, when I couldn't find the start of the race. I haven't lived in Utah very long, and definitely don't know SLC very well. I drove back and forth on Foothill Dr., trying to find this "Research Park". It didn't help that it's still dark. I even stopped at a gas station to ask, but the person behind the counter had no idea what I was talking about. Well, I finally found some skinny people in tank tops jogging around in the dark, a sure sign that I am near a race start line of sorts. I park my car and followed the skinny people, and sure enough, ended up at the start line. The bad news is that I had about 15 minutes before the race started, and I still had to get my number and do various pre-race "rituals" (ie potty). No warmup today. I got in line for my number, and then was told that I was in the wrong line. I'm quite agitated at this point. Finally get my number, and have 5 minutes until the race starts. Still have to go poo though, and portapots not an option because of long lines. I dashed over to the nearby hotel and found a bathroom with thankfully no one in it. Take the fastest, most thorough poo ever, and sprint over to start line. By the time I elbow my way into the line, they are counting down from 10. Needless to say, I have a LOT of adrenaline in me and I was in mental disarray when the gun went off, which is unfortunate because the field is quite fast and the race starts downhill, so I was doomed to go out too fast. So in a nutshell, the first 4 miles of my race were quite fast, and then I crashed and burned a bit on the last two miles, where the course flattens out. Pretty grueling finish, slight uphill. It wasn't pretty. But I ended up with a pretty nice time of 31:09, probably an equivalent to 32:00 on a track at sea level. Mile splits/HR: 9:42/176 -- 2-mile split, missed 1st mile 4:36/180 -- hauling, finally passed the top women 4:58/186 -- still moving good, but slowing down 11:57/190 -- missed lots of splits, this is the last 2.2 miles, so 5:33 pace. Very painful death. | | Add Comment |
