I set a new personal record on this course by 1 second. :) I wish I had known I was so close to getting below 46:00. I'm sure I could've made up that time at the 5 mile water stop. (I took a little too long there getting my drink down). It was very windy going North. I hate running in the wind. Other than feeling like I might throw up for the last 1.5 miles, I felt good. My ankle didn't bother me at all. It was fun seeing so many familiar faces. I passed two ladies in the last 1/4 mile. The both ended up being in my age group. I always feel a little guilty about that, but hey it is a race. Jerry took 2nd in his age group with a time of 41:31, and Taylor was the overall winner in the 2.2 mile run with a time of 15:27. Next year I'm going to make her do the 10k. It was fun day. My splits were 7:26, 7:02, 7:25, 7:32, 7:58, 7:31 and 6:26 for the last .20. |
