The most psycho race of the year, as usual. Couldn't find Tony, he was too hurt to run the race but ran up the canyon instead so it was looking like I could win it all. I started out with a goal to hammer the course, and I wanted to PR my mile time in the first mile of the half just to be funny. So I went right to 2 in 2 out max, and managed to tie it at 4:55. I kept hearing footsteps behind me though so I knew I had to focus hard and run the dude into the wall. I finally lost him around mile 3 and I figured as long as I kept up the ludicrous pace I could make it to the end. But Walter blew by me like nothing at mile 4, and I knew it would nuke my quads if I tried to match his speed. That was the last sub 5 mile for me - he got about 400 yards ahead and settled in. I gradually closed the distance for the rest of the race, but did not have the juice to seal the deal in the brutal mile 11 rolling hills. He ended up beating me by about 250 yards, and I beat the next guy by about 1.2 miles. Stupid fast 5K and 10K splits as usual at 15:30 and 31:19 and a 2 minute improvement from last year!

Calves are decently sore, will probably take Monday off  but no more breaks until SG.
