4 mile warm up. Felt blah. 

Race: immediately in 3rd place from the gun. Fast 1st mile downhill (4:59) and similar 2nd mile (5:06). Ran into downtown GP and then made way back up Hillcrest around mile 2.5. I caught 2nd place just after mile 3 (5:34). Was proud that I caught him as I thought I was destined for 3rd overall. Knew that I had to make up ground from miles 3-5 as they were uphill and that's a strength of mine. Mile 4 was incline the entire way (5:35) and mile 5 was just brutal uphill (5:55). Just steep as can be and so obviously my slowest mile. Turned around at the top of Vine St to absolutely fly back downhill to the start/finish line (5:00) and 51 seconds for final .2. 

One of the toughest 10ks I've ever ran. But honest because start/finish at the same spot. $1,000 was on the line for the winner but David Laney from Ashland came and smoked me. He ran 31:something but he's a 2:18 marathoner so it goes to show what a difficult course it was. 3rd place guy is a 1:10 half marathoner and he ran 35:something. I got $75 for second place.  Bummer.

2.2 mile cool down, then Human Bean and Cary's Toffee.  Decent post race refreshments!

Ran to HP and back, then around Illahee and home.  Slight soreness from Saturday's race, but nothing like a marathon or 50k.  Felt good to use the legs.  Guts were not happy from the binge eating on the drive home yesterday.

Horrible sleep last night, missed my run this morning.  But nearly 70 degrees tonight so ran after work.  3 with the boys on their bikes, then just over 6 more solo around Camas Meadows.

I developed a pretty bad blister on my left achilles yesterday morning and when I tried to run this morning, it was too painful to run.
