Race: Striders 10K (6.214 Miles) 00:37:47, Place overall: 3, Place in age division: 1
Total Distance
16.00

My goal time for the race was sub 38 and my plan was to get out really fast.

On the initial climb I tried to keep it close to Dave and Ben and I did a decent job. Heart bothered me a little on the initial climb but it was fine for the rest of the race. We crest a hill about half a mile in and I tried to get my turnover going. I was happy to see 5:35 (5:24 adjusted) for the first mile, which included some climbing. I was about 10 seconds behind Dave here.

Second mile is very aided and I ran 5:13 (5:38 adjusted), losing another 10 seconds to Dave. The course gets tough in the third mile (5:50/5:44 adjusted). Hit halfway even faster than last week (3miles in 16:39 approx 17:15 5k) but then just like last week I have to turnaround and run back up. Mile 4 is not so bad (6:11/5:55 adjusted). But I'm starting to feel like my effort is dropping as I can no longer see anyone in front or behind me.

At about mile 4.5 we start to climb a really steep grade that goes on for about half a mile. Still managed 6:53 (5:50 adjusted) for the 5th mile but my legs are on fire. I let my pace slow way down at the start of the sixth mile and this is the only spot where I was disappointed with my effort. Mile 6 was 6:50 (6:15 adjusted) and then I finished with 1:13 for the last little bit.

First time I've actually met a prerace goal in a while. Course tool says 35:52 which is encouraging as I feel I could have squeezed out another 20-30 seconds.
