Ran from Levan into Nephi before the race which was 11.63 miles at an average pace of 6:50.  Then ran the ute stamped fun run 5k which actually ended up being 3.25 miles.  Then cooled down 1.27 miles.  I didn't expect any competition in this race, I just thought it would be a good one to run because we wanted to spend some time with my grandparents and we like going to the ute stampede rodeo and I knew they gave the winner free tickets to the rodeo.  I tried to give it my best effort and make a good workout of it.  Mile splits were: 5:04, 4:54, 4:54, and 1:12 for the last .25 for a final time of 16:02.  I ran the whole thing by myself and won by over 2 minutes.  I got $50.00, a $25 gas card, and 2 tickets to the rodeo so it was well worth it and a great way to get a good workout in after running almost 12 miles already before the race.  As a side note, the rodeo was awesome that night!
