Run to the truck- Ran to the truck to beat the traffic on leg 1. .70
Leg 2- Felt paranoid that Mr. Hooper (or his teammate) were close so I ran smooth and hit some solid speed (for me). Actually really enjoyed this leg and the fact that it was shorter than advertised. 6 miles / 6:47 mi

Leg 4- I’ve run this leg like a million times so I just put on cruise control and rolled. Almost punched a lady’s car for pulling out to far at a gas station forcing me into traffic. 5.14 miles / 6:52 mi

Leg 6- Started to feel tired but just kept the pace at low 7s. Kept leap frogging the same team over and over. They’d pass Ross on his leg then I’d repass them on my leg. Solid crew from SUU. 3.79 miles / 7:05 mi

Leg 8- Historically the 4th leg is where my body has started to really slow down/cramp/hurt. I kind of expected it this year. I just tried to stayed positive and keep that pace consistent. Plus I had team #8 to pass again. 3.94 miles / 7:11 mi

Leg 10- Started right off with team #8’s best runner. I let him go and just tried to run smooth. Legs definitely were ready to be done after 1.5-2 miles into this leg. Similar to the last miles of a marathon. Plus there was a huge hill that I didn’t even attempt to run. No cramping but felt dizzy and slowed down a ton. I knew I just had to make it to the dyke then I’d survive. Luckily I had Sam Fish and Quinton Read to help me get to the finish. I would’ve probably pushed harder but felt no paranoia knowing Ross and I had 2-Man locked up. Great race day! Tons of fun with SGSilverbacks and old DSU teammates. 6.86 miles / 8:20 mi
