Arrived below James Barnes cabin with the Herriman cross country team and ran 4 miles of steep incline to the cabin. Then we hot settled and then ran another 5 miles. I had to run back and help my daughter so I ended up with 10.

We got all 20 kids up and out the door by 7.30 and did a 1 mile warmup at 7500' elevation and did a few striders and then raced 1 mile back to the cabin with a downhill stretch. I beat the fastest kid by 13 seconds with a 4.55 mile time. Very fun. Then we had a big breakfast and ran 9 miles down to Lava ho

t springs. I averaged a 6:30 pace. We then played at Lava! So fun!

Did an early 3 mile slow recovery run and then had a nice breakfast then we ran a mile up and did a 1.5 mile relay race and I was on Team 7 and started our team with a 1 minute lead and we ended up coming in last. It was fun to compete against these speed racers. Great group of kids.

Had a hard night and early morning. Got to the start and did a mile warmup. I took off a bit hard with a runner from Runners Corner. Then Albert Wint and Nathan Hornocks and another runner passed me. Mile 1 was slight downhill and flat in 5:30. Mile 2 was slight uphill with last quarter mile going over the peak. I was at 7800' elevation and was glad I qas on the downhill. At this point Albert and I took off and hot right up to the leaders. I wanted to use the hill to my advantage so I pushed harder. Mile 2 was 5:35 mile 3 was 4:54. Mile 4 was 5:04 5 was 5:14 and at this point we were ear the bottom. I was in 3rd overall. 6 was 5:12 then 7th mile was 5:28. This is when I guy the uphill part and passed Albert and tried to make a move on the first guy. 8 was 5:41 9 was 5:56. I finally had some decline again and hit 5:40 on 10. 11 was 5:45. I looked back to see a runner about 200 meters and closing fast. Mile 12 was 5:53 I was so tired at this point but had regrets of bring passed. I pushed my wasted self as hard as I could and hit 5:41. I turned with a quarter to go and was in hot pursuit so I gave er hell and took second by a mere 15 or so seconds. I was amazed at how none of the others runners around me took water at any stations that I saw. I was taking water at every station.
