Awesome race today. I came into today with high expectations, nothing but winning would be acceptable. I didn't have the best first can, but caught up to the pack after 100 meters, and never relinquished my lead. My second drink was average, and I ran a 70. Third drink was money and I ran another 70. I figured I would be ahead by a ton at this point, but Justin was hanging tough so I went into the last drink with determination. The last can was brutal to get down, and I puked hardcore, but I finished before Justin and ran a strong last lap to pull out the victory. Time was 7:21 which was a big PR, and pretty close to Marc's record, so it's going down next year. Winning this race has been a goal of mine since freshman year, so this was a great way to really close out the season.
