10.5 miles along the Jordan River Trail with Reed, Chad, Mike, and Toni.

After a 5 mile warm-up, did a 3 mile tempo at 5:40 average. Intentionally didn't push too hard -- was just testing the calf. So far, it passed the test. Fun to get the heart beating; seems like it's been awhile.

I'm not thrilled about this one, but it was fun. I thought I had 30+ more seconds in me for this aided 5k, but I was wrong. I left it all on the course, though. I felt sluggish the whole time. In fact, I've felt sluggish the entire week. Maybe it's because of backing off because of my calf. But, regardless of the reason, I fought as hard as I could. It is what it is.

Splits:  4:44, 5:02, 4:51, :35 (.15); My garmin said 3.15 miles at 15:13. The official results say 15:11. My garmin has been having issues.

I got beat by 2 high school kids. Kramer had an excellent race and won in 14:49. Chris Rushing beat me by 2 seconds. The race finishes with 3/4 lap on the East High track. When I hit the track, Chris had about 8-10 seconds on me. I kicked hard, and I almost reeled him in, but I ran out of distance. My fault he was so far ahead when we hit the track.

Fun meeting Jeff Shadley for the first time! What a great guy. Fun warming down with Rob and others.
