I just started college and am a little lost without my xc and track from high school!  But I'm beginning to breach the long-distance scene, which is fantastic!

So, I went under 1:40, which was pretty much the goal for today.  I was the second woman to finish, but based on chip time I was third.  I am happy with my race anyway, there was nothing I could've done to know her time would be faster than mine when she started behind me and finished after I did.

My race went well, my quads started to feel it around mile 6, but I was able to continue pushing.  The first place woman got away from me around mile 4, and she was out of sight until about mile 10, where I started to catch up but was too far behind to really have a chance.  So, I guess that is just a lesson about sticking with someone.  After the race, I cooled down with RJ.

Also, the mile markers were off again this year.
