Today marks 20 years since I ran my first Deseret News 10k. It's Pioneer Day in Utah which used to be a big day on this now moribund blog. I wore my Wasatch Running (RIP Wasatch Running Center) singlet and thought about how nothing stays the same.

My goal was either to break 40 minutes or win my age group and I didn't do either but I enjoyed the race. No doubt I could have dipped under 40 if I had only run faster!  Walk/jogged home from Liberty Park.
