Showed up at American Fork with the team and immediately did some jog arounds just to wake up the legs.  After that I sat around for about 3 hours patiently waiting for my race to start.  Cheering on teammates and such.  When our second girl got the baton, I started my warm-up.  2 miles with a couple of bursts of high cadence and increased tempo.  Race started and our lead guy struggled a little, we were pretty far behind by the time I was given the baton.  I had a lot of ground top make up, I think we were 36th out of 39 when I started my leg.  I caught 4 people and we ended up 32nd out of 39.  Not bad, I ran a 11:11 and honestly I am dissapointed with the time.  Could have gone low 10:50s if I had someone to run with and could find a constant rhythm.  Until the next race.

took today easy because of soreness in my back, went 4 easy miles on the road and then took two miles on the stationary bike. During my 4 easy I did some 400 pick ups. Increase of cadence. Feelin good today, stride felt good, arms were turning well.
