Heise Half.

Tried my best to rest my legs as much as possible this week after the Missoula race.

My quads were still pretty tight so I wasn't expecting to run this race very well. The other 2 top runners in the area were singed up so I figured I was going to get 2nd or 3rd. (one has a marathon this weekend so I knew she was going to hold back a little).

First couple of miles are gradual downhill so I took it very easy. A few girls took off. Legs were sore right off the bat. When the course flattened out I caught two and then took the last one at mile 4 on the uphill. Hill actually felt good on my legs.

I kept thinking my rivals were right on my tail so that kept me focused. I stayed relaxed and ran better than I thought I would. 2 minutes slower than last year, but 5 days after a marathon, I'll take it!

Great race, so close after Missoula and against tough competition. You continue to roll at races!
