Ran from my house to Butterfield Canyon up about a half mile and then back to my house. I felt pretty good to mile 8. It was very hot and I had nothing to drink. My wife brought me up a powerade at mile 11 and I drank it down. I had her leave me a water at mile 16 also. I felt a good pick me up at mile 13 to 16 then I was real tired. Im glad it was downhill from there. I weighed myself before I ran at 128.5 and 6% body fat. I lost 4.5 pounds on the run! Dangerous in my mind. I was at 5% body fat and 124! Holy crap! I think I weighed that in High School. I took an icebath and drank a Protein shake and took some Stim O Stam recovery pills because im seriously fatigued. Im glad I did it though.

Ok. I made it up to the start and huddled around the fire by Craig, Andrea, Amy and Dominique, and Bill.   It was a bit chilly up there in Eden. The gun started right on time and we were off. I started slow and wanted to get a feel for what was going on and after the first half mile found myself alone.  I was a bit worried I was going to fast until I saw my watch at mile 1 was 5:21. Not to shabby for a slight downhill start. I got to mile 2 in 5:55 which is all up hill. That was a good time I thought. I was passed at that point by a guy I dont know. He talked to me at the start and told me he was trying for a 1:15 so I figured if he was running as hard as  that he would fade so I really didnt take it serious.  I got to mile 3 at 5:34, then 4 at 5:36, 5 at 5:23 6 at 5:35, 7 at 5:38, 8 at 5:29, 9 at 5:23, 10 at 5:20, 11 at 5:40. This is where I got confused and ran off the course. It messed me up trying to get back into a groove. 12 at 5:57 and 13 at 6:03.  I saw Craig come in behind me and Maryanne and Katie.  I felt good and actually took 2nd place overall. The first place guy was disqualified for not being registered.   I won a Suunto GPS watch and a free pair of Asics running shoes, and a plaque. Oh and a WIN! My 3rd half marathon ive won so far. It was good.
