This morning Tyler and I woke up at 5 AM to go to the Freedom 10K in Provo for the Fourth. Longest official race I've ever run and it was a success! During about the third mile or so Asa caught up to me and I was able to stay with him for the rest of the race. They played some great tunes that motivated me, including The Final Countdown and Can't Stop The Feeling. At the end of the race Asa and I tried to out kick each other but the 5K "runners" wouldn't get out of our way and we had to weave in and out of some old ladies. His chip time was 37:28.4 and mine was 37:28.5 so props to him for getting the win. It was great to get to talk to so many other runners and enjoy the race adrenaline in the middle of summer.
