13.1 Great morning for a race/run. Ran the Cedar Canyon half marathon. I wanted to run about 6:00 pace. My Garmin had some trouble in the canyon and clocked it at 12.96 miles. I think that the course was 13.1 and very accurate. I think other runners with Garmins would verify this. Splits: 5:57, 6:04, 6:02, 6:08, 5:56, 6:02, 6:11, 5:59, 6:03, 6:10, 6:10, 6:14, 5:36(.96 mile) As you can see, garmin measured it short. I am not sure which miles were actually faster. I am guessing that during mile 5 my watch had some problems because I remember hearing it beep, looking down and it said weak GPS signal. From then on it seemed that my splits were about a tenth mile after the mile markers. I am pleased with how it went. I felt good and I feel like my body will recover quickly and soreness should be very minimal. It is great to have a local race of this caliber. For a first year race it was well organized and had a great turnout.
