Personal:

I decided to join to hold myself accountable for my training and because I love learning from others running experiences.  I just started running a little over a year ago and have a lot to learn.  I work fulltime as a Manager of Telecommunications for Intermountain Healthcare and go to school online through Weber State University.  If you want to know more check out my blog: www.runningfortrevor.blogspot.com

3.25 mile 5k in sugar house park. I've ran it 3 times and always measured 3.25. We do this race every year as a team to honor my brother who was an organ donor. It is hard for me to actually race because it is just way more about my brother and the cause. That said I did want to use it as a good workout. I love running in sugar house, the hills are a bit of a challenge but feel really good and I think the trail running I've been doing has improved my hill running skills. I felt really strong the entire time. 6:15, 6:09, 5:56, 86 seconds for the last 400. With only a 4 min wu and coming off a hard workout on Thurs I felt really good about this time. Really thankful one of the Alta XC runners showed up or I would have never pushed this hard. 5ks hurt! It was a really great day and I'm incredibly thankful to everyone who came out and supported our team this year. Always a fun day!

2.5 mi cool down mostly with Bec & Ericka. Fun to cheer everyone on.

Am #2: 6 mi in Provo canyon with cam cam wearing a sports bra & hokas! What a sight for sore eyes. ~8 pace. Felt good to shake the cobwebs out.

Great workout Rachelle. Those are some strong splits. You've got to be right about all of your trail running. You're looking great with your training over the last weeks.

I think it's awesome that you do this every year, and it looks like you had an awesome team this year! Keep it up! :)

Great job - negative splits on the SHP loop takes some major focus... big time improvement from last year, too!

Great race and congrats on the win! Very hard course for a 5k. I like all the speed work lately!

Wow, great 5k, and you just kept getting faster! What a great way to honor your brother.
