I showed up to the Magna 5k to try to run it with Teren Jameson. I knew he would go out fast, so I went with him. 4:17 first mile downhill with wind on the back. I settled into pace with Teren, then just before mile 2 my legs felt the wear of the Ogden Marathon, I decided to ease up and run for 2nd overall. I did this and it was a ton of fun.

By the Way, I did 6 x 1 mile repeats rabbiting for Kara Goucher after the Magna 5k. It was a blast.  Alberto Salazar was there, along with some of his athletes. (Josh Rohatinsky, Galen Rupp, Adam Goucher, and a Ugandan, who holds the NCAA 800m record.)  They were all really nice.  Kara was a blast to work out with.  I hope that the trials go well for her, and then the Olympics.
