Great race! Rebecca and I showed up and got registered there. It was really cold! We then ran our warmup for about a mile. Great times. When the race started there was quite a lead pack. I couldn't help but notice the guy running next to me breathing extrememly heavily. I was hoping he knew the race was longer than a quarter mile. After the start I stayed about 10 seconds behind the pack. I tried to keep the gap somewhat small. After a mile they began to space out which made things really easy for me. I just moved up one by one from 5th to 2nd. First place was a club runner from Mexico who finished at 17:10 so there was no way I was going to catch him. I did beat the guy who beat me at Running with the Bulls though so I was happy with that. Rebecca got first being 17 weeks pregnant!
