I was hoping to do well in this race to compete for the fastest lawyer. My training was going well but then we took an impromptu vacation and I did not run for the six days prior to the race. I also had a number of beers and stayed up until 2am after dropping my brother off after a night of celebrating the night before. It was a cool morning and I was unable to warm up. Luckily for me, all the ringers that have attended this race in prior years were nowhere to be found. That got me good placing among non-competitive runners. Alas, I was only the third fastest lawyer and I left wanting much more.
