I did a bike ride from Provo canyon to Heber and back with Christie. It was my first ride of the season and was an eye opener. Christie is an amazing rider and graciously waited for me about every 5 miles or so. Lol thanks Christie. Fun ride!

I decided to race this depite the fact my company was pacing this race. I started this race out similar to last years as I felt the down hill miles would give me the advantage against my competition. I led the race with Trevor next to me and the first 3 miles are flat but got into headwind right after mile 1. My first mile was 5:08 and I pushed the pace hoping I could have enough once the steep part hit but I got tired quick. We were in a pack of 6 guys so I slowed down on purpose so I could get a wind break for a bit but found myself fading from the pack. After mile 3 it finally dropped. I caught back to Trevor and passed him and worked on trying to get back to the pack. My miles were 4:38, 4:42, 4:48 for 4,5,6. I started reeling them in but then the course flattened more and had a few rollers that put a hold on me. I made it to mile 9 and had to stop for a bathroom break. As I came out Christies dad saw me and gave me a high 5 and that seriously gave me a kick ass high! I caught Trevor back up and passed him and felt good. It was a fun day!!
