This race is put on by MU Extension Fire Rescue Training during their summer fire school in Jefferson City. Money goes to a scholarship fund for continuing education for firefighters. Mark Lee is the race director and makes the trophies which are pretty cool. I ran it the first year 2 years ago, but missed last year since it fell the week after I had run my first 100 miler. There were about 20 people running today. Temperature about 72F and a little humid but overcast. I started at my normal 6 min pace and 3 guys were ahead of me. I held my pace and passed the first one at 1 mile. First split was 5:56. I could still see the other 2 guys ahead. This race is totally flat and partly on the road and also the Katy Trail so I was hoping for a better pace, but didn't happen today. Passed another guy at the second mile that was slowing down. Second mile split 6:00. The guy in first was too far ahead to catch so kind of lost motivation to push the last mile which I ran in 6:09. Overall time, 18:45, 6:02 pace for 3.11 miles. Received one of the nail runner trophies for second overall. Hugh and I ran out and back on the Katy trail for a total of 10 more miles after running the race.
