Race: Fight For Air Run (6.2 Miles) 01:06:00
Total Distance
6.20

So this was a lot harder than I was anticipating, with the hills seeming really steep.  I should have pushed myself harder as I thought I should have finished in 1:01 or close to that,  but it was still 5  minutes faster than my 10K last year.  Anyway, glad I did it, and am looking forward the Deseret News 10K on July 25.

Nice job Peg! Hills really suck, and you PRd by 5 minutes - not a small feat, and on a course that seems to be a lot harder than Des News. I think you'll rock a 55 minutes in July.

Thanks for the vote of confidence!! I know I can do closer to 1 hour in the Des News. Also, I talked to guy who ran it today too, and it was 6.5 miles, so I feel even better now!

Desnews is SO FAST! You are right on track to blow 60 minutes out of the water. Unless it's really hot that day, then all bets are off.

@ Allie, thanks!! I really hope I can do it!

@ Kam, even if it's hot, I can still do it!! It starts so early!!
