I ran in the Red Rock Relay. It was fun. Teamed up with Aaron Metler and Ross Decker and a few others that I didn't know. Erica was also on the team. On Friday night, i had my first leg, it was leg #16, I started around 1030pm, and it was supposedly 5.8 miles, all on a dirt road, all uphill, the whole way, including 4 cattle guards, and plenty of rocks and pot holes. Actually, the footing wasn't bad, a few distractions, but ok. My total time was 46.05, which averages out to a 7.50 mile pace, I really felt like I was going about 7.10 pace, so I think it was a bit long, and the van that i rode in measured it longer, but that isn't the point. I passed quite a few runners, so it was all good. |
