Notes
Perfect temp's and I had a pre-race 15 minute massage prior to this third leg. I was feeling really good and ran with a guy running a pretty quick pace under 8 minutes. He backed off saying that he was running the next two legs (Ultra), but I stayed ahead of him. He then picked it up the last 50 m and beat me. He didn't run the next leg. Geez! 5 road kills but I was killed at the finish.
There was not hardly any runners at this early portion of the race cause we were among the first 25 teams at that point. That was great because we didn't have traffic going up Guardsman for "You gotta be kidding" and "Ragnar" and down into Park City at the finish. Quite nice!! A first!
I had started Lloyd's diet the previous Sunday and had lost 5-6 lbs in 4 days. I stopped Wed night when I started to carb load. I was careful Thursday and had simple carbs during the relay and felt pretty good. Yay!
