I came into this race with low expectations. My body is a mess and my miles for the week were horrid. Maybe I needed a break. It was about 35 degrees st the start. I started out comfortable and mile one was 5.23. I felt like a million bucks and kept it easy. I was in 7th position behind BJ Christiansen. Mile 2 was 55.41 still feeling good. 3 was 5.39, 4 was 5.52. I saw BJ make a surge and pass Albert Wint and a couple guys came up on me and I felt good so I stayed with them. 5 was 5.43. 6 was 5.38. I was getting close to Albert now. 7 was missed on my watch. I pased Albert and had another runner with me. Mile 8 was 5.54 9 was 5.51. This was the hill and I got into 6th place. We then got to the top and came down and Albert and the other runner surged ahead of me about 100 feet. I thougt in my mind I could catch them on the flat last 2 miles because every up or flat I was gapping these guys and down hill they caught me and passed me. 10 was 6.01. Made it out of the Canyon. 11 was 5.49. Albert was fading and I wanted to wait till mile 12 to pass him but when someone is struggling, that's when you make your move. I pased him and tried to focus on form. Now I am a target for him. 12th mile was 5.51. No way I could catch the guy in front of me so I focused on not letting Albert get me. 13 was 5.48 and I made it to the shoot and peopl were going crazy because Albert was Pourin it on. I got on my tip toes and pushed it on in for 7th place. Its beautiful down here and we will take in the scenery today.
