| Race #1 of the Fall Series XC races in Monument Valley park. The course began with the usual wide trails, then a sudden turn onto a singletrack trail, over some hay bales up a hill, around the bend and off to Grama's house we go... The race then ended with the usual 3/4 mile run upstream. Yes in the water! I did well and actually reeled in a few people in the water. I finished 36th.
I now have three years of running about the same course, it changes every year, but in '05 I ran a 8:23/mile pace, last year a 7:38/mile pace and this year 7:16/mile. That's what I call improvement!
Oh!! By the way, Sandra!! The Patrick running on our team is Patrick Perry from Palmer High School. He remembers you and says hello! |

| We've formed a team for the Fall Series!!! This is awesome!! It'll be myself, Chad, Sean and Patrick and all three of us are about the same speed. Last year all three of us usually finished within 1-2 minutes of each other!!! I'd say that's a very solid team... |

| I got new shoes today!!! and wow do they make a world of difference. I'm fairly sure that most of my groin/hip/glute/hammy pain is shoe related, not to mention the mild case of shin splints... Anyway, ran with Chad in the Garden before Dodgeball!! |

| Another evening of volunteering for the Landsharks. This time, however, I was a shark not a rabbit because one of the parents had a halloween shark mask that I wore on the back of my head. The kids had fun trying to catch the shark.
It was cold though! 50F, if that...! |
