Following the same taper my friend is doing this week for the 10k race this Saturday(tomorrow).  I feel like I have hardly ran this week but am hoping it will help me feel fresh!  This will be my 2nd 10k and I am quite nervous but excited to see how I do.  I have definitely put in better speed workouts than I have in the past along with more significant easy runs.  I wish that I would have got in a few longer runs but overall I feel good about the my training the past few weeks.  If nothing else this will give me an idea as to where I am at and then I can build from there to hopefully reach my goal in July.

1 mile with a few strides:)  Not really sure why I decided on that today but now I just put it all behind me and enjoy the race tomorrow morning!

 39:16 10k @ 6:20 pace:(  I was hoping to be able to run a 6:10 pace so I was pretty disappointed but it gives me something to build off of for my next 10k.  I was pretty confident that I was going to be able to do it but I guess I need put in a little more training and probably some better track workouts.  I got in good tempo runs but should have probably been doing some 400/800 meter repeats.  So, I have a few weeks to push my training and then try again.   

 and...to top off not getting my goal time, my family was no where to be found at the finish.  I waited about 45 min. at the spot Chase told me he would meet me with my boys and finally someone from my ward met and told me that Chase and all my boys were at the emergency room.  Jackson was climbing in the a tree near 87th street where they had told me there were going to be to cheer me on and fell out and broke his arm.  It happened before I got there so I never saw them and didn't also didn't have a cell phone.  So it was quite the day!
