Personal:

Born again Christian. I have been a type 1 diabetic since 2015 and celiac since 2018, and even though I have had my struggles with it, I still strive to live a healthy life. Senior at Utah State University studying Health Science. Hoping to go into pharmaceuticals and focus on diabetic supplies and medicine, because I am quite passionate about helping those that have the same medical condition as I do.

Woke up pretty early got to the race and warmed up 2 miles strides and dynamics. Then the race was off. Got out a lot better than last year because there was one girl ahead of me last time haha!! First mile was 5:44. Felt pretty good but should have gone out faster. Was passing a few people then trying to stick with this guy in crocs( I mention him in a bit). Second mile came in a little faster with a 11:26. Felt pretty good most of the way. Then we hit a hill and my legs got really stiff. Tried to stay with the next guy but just couldn't hold on. Anyway good race and a fun morning. Yesterday I didn't eat good at all and I think it affected me big time today!!! So next race I'm gonna change that. After the race you will never believe who I met. It was the guy that started this great social blog we are all on. Him and his son ran it and they are super fast and from Russia!!! Cooled down with them after the race and had a good chat. Give them a

follow!!! There names are Sasha Benjamin!!! Also S/O to Eugene for killing it on his 10k!!!

PM- later did an easy 4 around the golf course. It was hot 7:20 pace for that.
