| 6:00 am - I finally conquered the 10/10 with Sasha. 10 up Provo Canyon easy (1:20:00 - 8 minute pace) and 10 down fast (1:02:10 - 6:13 pace). Finally everything worked for this run and I actually finished feeling I had some in the tank. This is certainly a confidence booster going into the SOJO marathon in two weeks. | | Add Comment |

| I successfully defended my title from last year leading this one from wire to wire. I was 28 seconds faster than last year and the course was longer this year by a bit (they added a section to the course). The race started just after 6 pm and was mostly an out and back course. It was cool (mid-high 40's) with a south wind and some rain. My miles splits per the mile markers were as follow 5:43 (I think this one was long), 5:44, 5:54 (the last quarter was heading into the wind), 6:22 (into the wind but I think it was long), 5:25 (yep mile 4 was long). I almost ran my race number 28 but missed it by a few seconds - without the south wind for 2-1/4 miles I am sure I would have gotten it. Won a nifty Halloween trophy and a medal for 1st in my division. Not a bad way to spend $15. | | Comments(6) |

| 8:00 - Ran the last 8 miles of the SOJO marathon course plus the 3 miles to get to that point from my house. Went out at an "easy" pace and was surprised to see 6:58 pace for the fire 1.5 miles. Granted this was predominately downhill run but I didn't plan to be running under 7's. I finished the 11 miles in 1:16:11 - 6:54 pace. It was nice to get a feel for the last 8 miles of the course. | | Comments(4) |

| I have very mixed feelings about
this race. It was a wonderful day with my family and friends but my
finish time fell quite a bit short of what I thought I capable of. My
goal going into this race was to break 2:50. I hate to be one to make excuses,
but it is of note that we had a heavy south wind and it way 10 degrees warmer
than I would have liked. I do realize that I need to increase my weakly
mileage from the high 50's/60's to 70's/80's and I plan to follow that course
going into spring marathon season. I feel that endurance is my primary
limiting factor and is one I can fix. I found myself struggling more with
heart rate/breathing than leg fatigue in the waning miles of the race.
To quickly sum the race up (I will post more specifics later) I
went through the first half in about 1:24:30 (as planned) but after mile 20 I
had no steam left to take advantage of the 4 mile downhill stretch and just
trotted along the last 2 miles where I was passed by the 3rd place finisher. | | Comments(4) |
