Great day! Finally had a bit of a breakout race, went uner 17 for the first time this season, so I'm getting back to where I once was. The course deffinitely helped, I absolutely loved it. The conditions also helped as it was cooled down, and I didn't have any sun in my eyes, plus running in the dark is exhilerating. Finally ran a race smart. I've been going out hard and trying to compete lately, but here, I didn't. I relaxed the first mile or so, then slowly picked it up. This was hugely successful, and made racing fun again. Passing people gives you more eenergy, which you can use to pass more people. I started towards the back of the middle, but finished in fifth. Team took 3rd of eight teams, we were close to Salem, so we're improving in the region as well. Timpview took first, their guys were flying. S/O to Clayton for top 10ing it with me. S/O to Kenny for almost top 10ing it with us. Our first three runners are a really tight pack right now, which is great for scoring, we just need to work the time down a little bit.
