Personal:

Have been active my whole life, but turned my focus to running in 2006 after deciding to run a marathon.  I really enjoy the training aspect and staying healthy, but mileage has been on the decline over the past 3 years due to work commitments, so focus has turned away from races and more on just staying fit enough to still enjoy getting out.  Moved from Utah to Texas in October 2016 with my wife and 3 month old babe.

Pretty tired and so much happens during this event, so will keep it simple since I really just want to log my miles.

 

AM

Went out for 1.62 to get the blood movin.  I'm in Van 2 for team Chainlove.com and we wont actually start our part of the course until 6:30 pm.

PM  Leg 10  24:07

Leg 10 is a flat 3.6 miles around Pineview resevoir.  Lacy was on another team this year and I let her borrow my Garmin since this is sort of a low key event for me.  Just a good time with friends and co-workers.  So I ran with a regular watch to track my total time.  No splits because they only put up a mile marker when there's one mile of your section left to run.  I started out really fast, but felt strong so went with it.  Then got some headwinds, and felt pretty crappy around mile 2 till the finish.  I passed about 10 teams and battled with a young track guy with less than .25 miles to go, but he out kicked me at the end.  Avg. 6:42 per mile for the leg.
