Nice race, for being at about 10 miles per week I did alright. Conditions were really nice and I had fun, might train for a marathon this summer and break 3 hours, maybe 2:50 if I really get into it. I'm considering not doing collegiate level running anymore, I graduate from suu in 17months, maybe I will try going to the first indoor meet but I think with all the injuries (pinched nerves still giving me trouble) and other priorities overtaking competitive running, maybe I should just run for health and fun.

It's a fine line between running on the edge and not being injured, it's always hard to find that balance. 17:30 on 10 miles a week is sick enjoy your genetic ability. Health and fun is good, you may not be ultra-competitive but you can be competitive, Happy Thanksgiving
