Cedar Canyon Half Marathon

Wow...what a day.  I ran the first ever Cedar Canyon Half Marathon.  The route started at Woods Ranch and went down Hwy 14 to the Main Street Park.  It was fun but hard.  I was still sore from the Red Rock Relay the weekend before and was only able to run one day this week.  I felt great the first 8 miles then got hit with a case of "the trots."  I had to run hastily up a few side canyons to relieve the cramps but I was able to finish.  I made it in 2:08:00 which I felt was good considering the intestinal problems. Today I am real sore.  The mostly downhill route took it's toll on my knees and back.  I am glad it's over but already look forward to another race soon.  I'm going to have my left knee scoped soon so I will be out of commission for a few weeks after.
