Ran the 5k solo then the 800 leg of the DMR.  I had no idea how I would feel running around a track and running faster than I have run in three months. The 5k turned out a better than I expected and I think I even managed to even split the miles which is very unlike me in a 5k.  I had never raced an 800 so in hindsight I think I went out a bit too conservatively.  Finished in around 2:25 but I felt like I could have gone faster....sorry guys.  Our DMR team of Rob (1200), Kevin (400 in speed suit), Fritz (800) and Jake (1600) finished behind some lads from BYU and UVU.

Below are pictures of the women's DMR winnners (Kim, Amiee, Devra, Abby), Men's winners from BYU and UVU, Coed winners (John, Josh, Lindsay, Walter) and the Men's first runner ups.

The real winners were Allie and James who did all the work to put this together and they even brought super pops for post race nourishment.  Thanks Allie and James!

It's so good to have you back Fritz. You have to be happy with your times today.

Be careful!

Now that's one serious 5k off the couch, Fritz! Nice work!
