Iron knee trail race, with several different women at the beginning but settled near this tall girl with plaid shorts. Knew there was one more girl ahead of us with a pink shirt. Got ahead of the plaid shorts girl on the downhill to lynn valley, and caught a glimpse of pink shirt girl. Took a gel, and could not see pink shirt girl on the gravel hill up and then down to seymour river. Looked back as I started to climb and saw plaid shorts girl was still close. She got a bit closer to me on the looooooong uphill, but then I tried to push to catch a glimpse of the pink girl on the downhill. Saw her turn down the trail when I was on the second road (~2 mins ahead?) then I never saw her till right at the end when I came out to the road in deep cove (still caught a glimpse of plaid shorts girl behind me too - which encouraged my very tired body to pick it up a bit more). Ended up all pretty close...

Rests, silly walks afterwards, and warm down.

Run with Mike, did 5 by 3 minutes hard on the trails in PS park, 1 min off in between.

Got sunny (with some clouds but no rain), so had a nice long day outside and climbed until our arms felt like they were hard to lift ;)
More sun this weekend than I have had in awhile!
