SALT LAKE TRACK CLUB WINTER 10K

I ran the 10k this morning. I warmed up just over three miles. There was slight headwind from the East, which is abnormal for this race. So once we got started I proposed to Garek that we trade leads. We did that every half mile to the turn. Splits going out 5:08, 5:11, 5:09 and 16:08 at the 5k hairpin turn.

From here Garek and I ran mostly side by side. We traded half step leads thru 9k, but then he had that gear that I just couldn't reach down and find. Splits back 4:59, 4:59, 4:46 and 15:26 5k split. We both broke my previous course record of 31:41. Garek won in 31:24 and I was second in 31:34. So 7-second course PR for me. Good day.
