We had nice weather for running, cloudy and 50s throughout the day. Race started in the dark so headlamps through half of the first 20 mile lap. I got out good but was not holding liquid or food good as it would run right through me on both ends and I knew it was going to be a long day. I entered the USATF national championships race and another runner in my age group caught me half way through lap 3. I was running faster when running and he was faster powerhiking on hills but I put him away by the start of the last lap and was championship winner 55-59 and also 3 master overall 50-59 in the regular race. It wasn't my fastest race here but with the digestive troubles and continual nose running it was a successful grinder that I'm fortunate to finish.

Started out with some weight lifting, drove out to Draper for an easy out and back on the dirt. Nice warm day I saw Eric as I was leaving the marina

Out to Tinker track for 4x400 and 4x200 and a couple of strides as I thought turning my legs over on the track would aid in my 100 mile recovery . Will see tomorrow how it went

Draper lake hills and back on a warm somewhat windy humid day. I spotted a water bottle and someone snatched it up before I could retrieve it after the run.

Treadmill run measured with the Garmin foot pod. Treadmill had me at 5.5. Cold front came in last night and with a race tomorrow an easy tread run was good for today

25 deg. At the start wind was about 10 mph. Started out strong runinning 6:40s going out but the course gets hilly and we had to turn back into a solid wind at the turn around. Lots of turns on this course so the leaders may have had some trouble staying within the cones with leader Jason B. A couple of minutes out in front. My Garmin was still set for low battery Ultratrac from my recent RR100 so course measurements weren't in order when I finished. It was great to see a few of my old co workers and the officers greeting the finishers seemed to enjoy a retiree nearing 60 finished in the top 10. I thinks Jason B. and myself could come up with a faster course than the one we ran today that would use less volunteers and turns. I'm very happy with my performance today. I'm not a cold runner and today was an icebox.
