Had a really fun race at the Little Hollywood Half in Kanab this morning. Fist place and set a course record ( yes its only a 2 year old race and not much competition but Ill take it).The race is downhill but has some good roll and climb in the 3.5-8.5 mile section. Ran with Levi Hawks for the first 3 then alone till the end. Felt really good till about 6 then I could feel the legs try and go away. Worked hard to keep a steady pace and not slow. Not sure if having Warrant - Uncle Toms Cabin stuck in your head for the night before and all during a race helps or hinders performance. It felt like I was on pace for a 1:15-1:16 but no such luck. Nice to get a win dispite the slower than wanted time. Greatful to still be able to run, race and have such a good time doing it.
5:57, 5:41, 5:40, 5:57, 5:56, 6:00, 5:58, 5:59, 6:05, 5:55, 6:08, 6:08, 5:53, 1:40(5:43 for .29)
