I brought my family to the Run for Remembrance in American Fork, UT. I ran the "mile" run. My Garmin said 0.89 miles. It was a lot of fun. And I feel OK about my race. My time was 4:55, so on the official record I ran a sub-5 mile. But my pace was 5:30 according to my watch. I felt really good, and it felt like I was running for only 2 minutes. Next time I do a mile I should do better, now having a better feel for it.

I also did some warmup and cooldown with my kids. Fun day.

Congrats on the race. I was wondering how far it actually was. The first two guy finished in like 4:10. They were cruising but I was doubtfull they were going that fast.

thanks, guys! Those high school kids only wish they could run 4:10 for the mile. :) I think if I really worked at it, I could do a 5 minute mile again. Maybe I will try.

Jimmy, nice job on your 10K!
