9am series race in Seymour.  30 degrees and a little more chilly with the wind. 

Brief WU with strides before.  Hard to tell where I stood until mile 3.  2 college (small) level guys were way out in front from the start, and I never saw them after about mile 2.   

By mile 3, I have settled in somewhere out of ear shot of 4th and alone in 3rd.  Struggled through rest of race. 

5:49, 6:05, 6:12 (?), 5:54, 6:07, 6:01, 57s partial

10k - 37:09     Brief CD with Josh Knight afterward.
