4 mile race today. It was very cold, around 20 at the start, but what made it cold was the windchill in the single digits. Froze my face off. Kept a really steady pace though and ended up 4th overall. Would have won the 2 mile, but didnt know that beforehand obviously.

Splits--

1- 5:46

2- 6:00

3- 5:59.9

4- 5:55

TOTAL--23:41, 5:55 pace. Overall, a good race. Kept very even pace. I knew I had lost speed, but it was nice to see I still maintained overall fitness. Really was just a fast tempo run, but managed to use that to get 4th in a race. Fun stuff. No other races this year as I wrap up my 2009 season. Will prolly give a general rundown and reflect on the year at a later post. Probably will get out a few times for some casual runs, but wont start training again til mid-January.

Good race, enjoy the down time and break from hard training (I know I am enjoying it) as your body really needs the rest period.
