Bought a guy's bib so I could run (Steven Labat from craigslist). He was in the 30 division but in Corral G since he was hoping to run a 2 hr. half. I poked the middle of the "G" out and managed to get into Corral C. Corral C started about 10 minutes after Corral A - they allowed each corral to get a buffer before letting the next one go. I ended up leading Corral C for the first mile, where I got slowed by the slower runners of Corral B. A very difficult 8 mile tempo run on Thursday took its toll on my legs by mile 7 or 8 and then I caught up to Stori who was running from Corral A, so I slowed to her pace and enjoyed a few miles at that pace. Fun running through Angel stadium! Then pushed hard for last two miles. Fun!
