Enoch City 10K Freedom Run.  Cathy talked me into running it... I was too sore to run this race.  Both calves were very tight, and I had shin split pain during the entire run!!

Splits: 7:55, 7:19, 7:14, 8:00 (stopped and stretch), 7:33, 7:52, 7:56 pace for 0.4 miles. Last 1.5 miles was uphill... Why????  This was probably my worst race!

Then I rode home on my bike... 94 miles home!  Average speed = 19.0 mph.  Just finished under 5 hours.  We took the route through Enterprise.  Lots of hills and plenty of head wind!! That was one of the hardest almost century rides I have done!!! Glad I did it!!!  I made it back in time for my Destist appointment by 3 minutes... :)  Oh Wait... :(

I raced breanna on the last 0.2 miles of the swim.  Either I'm getting faster or she was toying with me!?

We pushed some tough intervals on the bike.  I should feel this tomorrow!

We were planning doing 12X400 but the weather was so hot (105) Dennis told us to do 6X400 but at a faster pace.  So instead of our 1:36 400's we set our pace fopr 1:30 400.  We did okay!

Ran the first mile with Joseph and Anna. Then I ran the Bloomington Hills loop (hilly) and then crossed over the Virgin River through the back way into Bloomington. My faster mile splits were the down hills. I was running about a 8:30 on the flats and between 9 & 10 pace on the tougher hills. I ran the last hill at a 8:20 pace.

Mile Spilts: 11:40, 9:15, 8:53, 7:54, 8:14, 8:21, 8:01, 8:20, 8:20, 7:23, 8:23
