2 miles warmup and strides.
Had a hard time getting myself to go fast for some reason. But I still got out fairly good. Going up the hill I passed a few people. The whole first mile was uphill which sort of sucked. By the mile I was starting to mentally crash because I didn't know how much more uphill there was and I wanted it to end. But I pushed through anyway, where Bill yelled out my split for the mile he said it was 6:23 but my garmin said 6:44 (we've established my garmins lazy so that's probably why). Second mile was 6:29 with rolly hills, last was 6:07 pace with downhill and a few ups. Was 10th with 300 left but just couldn't kick, 2 people passed me again in the last 50 meters. Ugg. Mixed feelings about it. Felt like I worked hard, maybe even harder than I did at Nebo. I got the same time I did last year! With the elevation change though I bet if it was run in Salt Lake I would have been under 19. I did 2 miles cool down.
