Nice Run with Steve, kendrick.    We missed Dave, James and the man in the speedo Clyde who arrived an hour early at the Dixie center.     We took it very easy.  I wanted to us this run to see if i was ready to run the half next week.   I  know know i can run it.  Bu ti am not sure it would be a very good race.     I was pretty tight most of the time.   I am not a very good cold wheather runner. 

I know i couldprobably  skweek in a 130.00  but i do not want to hurt myself doing it.   I do not have a very good base of miles under me at this point.  The last 3 miles i did pick it up 6:15 pace.     ave 7:30 pace over all.

decided i felt a need for some speed today.  Talked to Aaron and Hayden  at the rec center.   Hayden has really let himself go,    He looks like he has gained 30lbs.    He looks sickley.    He said he plans on running the Half.     Not ,any people are going to fear This warrior from the past.  only thing that is not going to blow by him is the wind if itis a calm day saturday.   Man  Arron on the other hand looks primed and ready to go.  If the guy was going to run this race  i think Dave would sell his shorts to win.    I do hear that a mighty group of runners will be there saturday.  

Ran one mile 7:10 pace.   Ran 4 interval  1 miles at 5:27.  Felt ok. But i am way out of shape.

What a sweet day for a Race,   1000 plus came out to run 13.1.  They came to take it out on the trail.  All of them came for different reasons. Some to just run with friends.  Some to claim the 1st [lace prize.   Some to prove to them self that they can run a half Marathon and live to tell about it.  

Today I ran to just enjoy the run.   To have fun.  and to talk to good friends.   and meet new friends.  My time was not imortant.  I wanted to just run around a 7 min pace and take it easy.   I ended up running 132:00       Along the way I talked to several runners and just had fun.   I talked to Amber, Michele, and a few others  befor the race.  Amber is an awesome athlete. She passed me about mile 9   and she motivated me to pick it up a little. 

The  beginning of the race was great.   Clyde  and his mountain bike was ready to rumble.  Logan had his Grandpa's Bike AND I WAS WORRIED HE COULD NOT PETTLE IT FAST ENPUGH.    We had a fast group, Dave Holt, Paul.  and the mighty Hayden!  (wonder boy! ) and  some others.      I maintained a fairly even pace most of the way.  I can tell that i am very much out of shape.  Miles 6-10 were the hardest on this race, Mostly because of my conditioning.  Some of the trail slippery.
