I met Steve and went up to the start, our bus got lost for 20 minutes. At the start I saw and met up up Amy and Stacy. It was good to finally meet them. I think I talked to Ron but wasn't sure. I started out good, a little slower than I did at St. George. I figured it would help save my legs at the end. I ran a mile with Kurt and hit a 5:50 which he thought was too fast and told me I could go. Mile 2 was a 5:40 and 3 was 5:30. 4-7 were a good climb. I did 2-6:22's. Then a 7:09. Then I got back into a 5:45 pace. I slipped to a 6:08 pace at about mile 16 which was kind of early on. I saw Kelli at the soccer park. I was starting to feel it good. I made it to mile 20 which runs by my neighborhood and my wife and kids gave me a bottle of Cytomax. I stopped and drank half it and felt great to mile 21. Then I got passed by the first place guy. I had a death march from then on. I barely kept under 8 pace. It was too much to soon from SGM two weeks ago. I took 2nd overall and made $200 bucks for my lagoon trip with the family next week! :)

One embarrising part I should mention is I collasped at the finish line from severe leg cramps. I couldnt freaking stand up on my own. I was carried to the med tent and they forced me to drink this salted down gatorade 4 cups of it or it was an IV which I didnt want. I was a bit dehydrated.
