I ran the speedy spaniard 10K this morning, I wasn't expecting anything real big out of this race other than to get some nice speed work accomplished for a change. I knew that this wouldn't be a PR day but I wanted it to be on honest effort and give it a good try. My goal was to keep around a 7:30 pace through out and I think I was able to do that for the most part. The first mile was up hill so I let that mile get away from me but I seemed to recover after that some, I need to work on my speed and get some good hill training in before St. George that's for sure. My average pace was 7:32 with my total un-offical time 46:16.

See ya tomorrow.

Got your goal. Up and downhill training before STG will be most useful. I ran the course a couple weeks ago and the constant change keeps the legs guessing what's next and if not ready dead too early.

Nice race Clay, good job holding the pace. A few more Payson canyon runs and long runs and you'll be good to go!
