Race: Wasatch Back (7.9 Miles) 00:00:00

Easy Miles	Threshold Miles	Marathon Pace Miles	Track speed mileage	Hill mileage	Total

Going into my last leg my legs were already killing me. I set a goal to run the first four and then I could walk after that. I didn’t quite make it to four miles before walking but I was still proud of what I did on this leg. This leg started at 7:40 in the morning.

Splits: 8:37, 8:58, 9:08, 12:08, 11:32, 10:17, 11:50, 7:53 (only .85 of a mile)

Update on Kim – When she got home she went to the doctor and discovered that she was coughing so hard she cracked a rib…yes she ran the Wasatch back with a cracked rib!!!!!

Other fun facts: I saw pron8er, Alisak, rdrunner, and mrs. Rdrunner during the race, lost and found my Garmin, Went to the wrong exchange, and said my first bad word during a race.

Kimmy is hard core. She'll have some serious bragging rights with that.

Looks like you had a good race. Congrats.

Great effort. Everyone was so lucky to have you on their team.

i've said many bad words during a race. welcome to the club!

I'm guessing your bad word wouldn't qualify as a bad word to most of us. Congratulations on completing a grueling race.

WOW! What a busy crazy fun weekend for you!

First of all, CONGRATULATIONS on your son (James?) going to the Temple! That is SO SPECIAL! It fills my heart, as I'm sure yours, with JOY!

Secondly, KUDOS to Kimmy for running her Ragnar with a crack rib! Yikes, coughing so hard! I can't believe she even shows up! What a diehard!

Last but not least, YOU ARE ONE SKINNY FAST AWESOME RAGNAR RUNNING GRANNY! Your team was very lucky and blessed to have you!

Saying my first 'good' word during a race, now that would really be something lol.

Nice to see you at the race, glad to hear you found your Garmin. Meg ran the same leg as you this year, not sure she felt as good as you on the uphill 8 miler but she survived.
