| local elementary school fundraiser, none of the serious runners come to this so it is pretty much a solo time trial. Since the money is for Providence elementary I wish they would ditch the millisecond chip timing they use, which takes a huge chunk of the entry fee with their ridiculous fees for timing the race. I am no fan of milliseconds anyway, and you would think they could provide free or reduced rate timing for fund raisers for schools but I guess not. And there is no reason to chip time a little race like this with no serious runners anyway. I've tried to convince the people in charge of this but to no avail.
Whoever marked the course added an extra block before first turn, which added exactly 0.25 miles to the race, making it a 5.4 instead of 5K. Oh well it's a fundraiser for the school, and to make money for millisecond chip timing, so it hardly matters. The course is a loop with rolling hills through River Heights and Providence. Splits were 5:42 (mostly downhill), 6:02 (rolling hills but net level), 6:20 (uphill) and 5:39 for 0.35 miles (downhill). Kind of a "bleh" performance, not really motivated for racing right now. I entered the SG lottery, and i am almost hoping I don't get in so I can just take the summer off and get fat and lazy. If I don't get into SG then Bolder Boulder on Memorial day will be my last race of the year before a low key 5K in November.

| 8.5 easy in rain. checked the SG lottery page and my name doesn't appear so i assume i didn't get in. I guess that means Memorial day bolder boulder will be the end of the "racing" season for me this year . I have a really busy summer anyway so am going to enjoy the time off from training. I will still "run" some, just not train. |

| tough day at health days. I thought I was in as good of shape as last year, but I ran a full minute slower. Not sure how to interpret that. It was warmer, head wind up the canyon, I am too old for this, I don't know.
Course goes 3 miles up Smithfield canyon for continuous 500 foot climb, then you come screaming back down again . my trouble today was getting moving on the uphill. I just couldn't get my legs to turn over like I wanted.
mile splits: 6:27, 7:03, 7:23, 5:38, 6:02, 5:47, 5:20 for 0.2 miles.
Well, it was still fun, got to see and talk to Conner, Rob, Steve, Dave and Keith. Finished about 30 seconds back from Keith and way back from Conner and Steve. big congrats to Conner on another solid win. I was hoping to win the SG marathon entry but alas no such luck.

| ran from home to TOU course in Millville then out hollow road. found Paul about where I was planning on turning around anyway so I turned around and decided to see how long I could stay with him-- which was maybe a half mile at most since he was cranking out 5:20 miles. Then ran a tempo rest of the way back to Paul's car for 1.85 miles total at 6:11 average pace, chatted in sign language with Paul for a few minutes then easy back home. |

| ran the Bolder Boulder like I do every year. They changed the course this year adding a little more net uphill. Would've liked to break that pesky 38 minute barrier but the course just wouldn't cooperate. lost 10 seconds off last year, but I will attribute it to the course being 15 seconds harder!
