My 3rd run was leg 25.  Which was from Oakley to Kamas.  It was 4.9 "easy" miles.  I felt pretty good on this leg although by the end I was ready for it to be over.  My splits were 7:48, 8:05, 7:43, 8:36 and 7:20 (.9).  My AP was 8:04 (yuck!- I was trying to keep my averages under 8).  I had 16 "kills".

I put in an additional 2 miles after our third runner ran his leg.  We then walked down the hill towards Heber until our van picked us back up.  Our third runner was amazing.  He ran up the hill between Kamas and Heber- and had over 60 "kills".  He was really fun to watch.

 This was the most amazing experience- I can't wait to do it again.  My team, 2Fast2BLast, came in 2nd in our division and 9th in the coed division.  Yeah us!

WOW! You guys were fast, and nice job on your legs...you ARE a rockstar! Not too many people were passing on those legs and you were getting double digit kills, I'm impressed!! :) Keep up the good work and I hope to see you soon.
