So this turned out to be a pretty decent race for me. I knew my time would be quite a bit slower than the last time I ran this. I met up with Bill at Snow Canyon Middle and we did 2.5 miles warm-up
1-6:13- the usual excitement of lots of young kids going out super fast in a 5K. I also was a little excited and when I saw my split I thought oh no maybe I started to fast.
2-6:18- actually felt pretty good this mile, but kind of a big gap between where I was and the group ahead of me.
3-6:31- this mile didn't feel that bad either
19:44 (6:21)
My goal going in was to be very happy if I could break 20:00, so I accomplished that goal.
I took 15th overall and 1st in the Master's Division. Pretty cool I got a $50 gift card to the St. George Running Center and also a cow bell.
After the awards I did another 5.5 miles of running out on the paved trail from Snow Canyon Middle.
