Started at the SGM finish line and ran up the course to Red Cliffs parkway and then extended up a couple miles. Went out slow, not hard to do that with most of this being up hill. Coming back the first miles was 8:00 and then I decided to go to race apce for the last 4 miles and gut it out. Averaged 7:18 pace for the last 4 without looking at the garmin to see what I was running- This feels very good to me and very under control.

My hope is that I am feeling good on saturday and can be in a position to finish the last 6 miles strong rather than crashing like I usually do at St. George.
