R2R2R @ the Grand Canyon with a group of friends - 16 hours(2014) Short-Term Running Goals: Get back in decent running form. Maybe enter a road race in 2017? Long-Term Running Goals: Run a 5k under 18:00 Personal: Have been active my whole life, but turned my focus to running in 2006 after deciding to run a marathon. I really enjoy the training aspect and staying healthy, but mileage has been on the decline over the past 3 years due to work commitments, so focus has turned away from races and more on just staying fit enough to still enjoy getting out. Moved from Utah to Texas in October 2016 with my wife and 3 month old babe. Favorite Blogs: |

AM 52:05 Felt pretty stiff today, but things are coming back after the down time last week. Did 6 x 1:00 strides in the middle miles of my run. Pace was around 5:45 for each interval. Avg. 7:30 per mile for entire run.

AM Lacy and I took the new addition to the family out this morning. He's a 4 year old Brittany we got from the American Brittany Rescue and we named him Griffin. He's a little over weight, so today was a test to see how fit he is and he did great! Did planks, side-planks, and 21 push-ups, then we did a 2.75 mile loop around the house and he didn't pull or want to stop very much. The pace definitely slowed by the end which was expected. I think he'll shed the pounds quick and be trail ready in no time! I went back out for another 2.5 miles at a very chill pace. No watch today.

AM total run time 40:58 Took Griffin out for 1.24 miles avg. 9:30 pace. I'm not gonna include this in my run average because I'm not really trying, just getting the blood moving. Then went back out for 4.07 on my own with a .14 mile pick-up at the end. Did some core after the run. Avg. 7:10 per mile.

Pretty tired and so much happens during this event, so will keep it simple since I really just want to log my miles. AM Went out for 1.62 to get the blood movin. I'm in Van 2 for team Chainlove.com and we wont actually start our part of the course until 6:30 pm. PM Leg 10 24:07 Leg 10 is a flat 3.6 miles around Pineview resevoir. Lacy was on another team this year and I let her borrow my Garmin since this is sort of a low key event for me. Just a good time with friends and co-workers. So I ran with a regular watch to track my total time. No splits because they only put up a mile marker when there's one mile of your section left to run. I started out really fast, but felt strong so went with it. Then got some headwinds, and felt pretty crappy around mile 2 till the finish. I passed about 10 teams and battled with a young track guy with less than .25 miles to go, but he out kicked me at the end. Avg. 6:42 per mile for the leg.

| AM Leg 22 53:30 Leg 22 is a 7.7 mile section of rolling hills that climbs about 550 feet in elevation. I felt pretty fatigued from lack of sleep and driving the van all night. This race really takes a toll on your nervous system, but is so fun! I warmed up after a few miles in to it, and then just concentrated on running as efficiently as possible. I passed a ton of people and was passed by one guy in the beginning that I was not willing to chase down. Avg. 6:57 per mile. PM Leg 34 41:23 The RAGNAR as Leg 34 is affectionately named is a 4 mile climb up a dirt road from Midway to the top of Deer Valley in Park City. This section gains over 1,600 feet in elevation, averaging over 400 feet of vertical per mile! I've never ran up this thing before and have much respect for it now that I have. I hiked for about 1 minute up 3 separate hills because they were SO steep it seemed just as fast as running, and it didn't take as much of a toll on my cardio. Passed about 15 people on this leg. Much respect for this part of the course..... Avg. 10:21 per mile.
