41:35, 11th place overall, 1st age group.
Fun and challenging race in St. Pete this morning. Started out on track for 40:00 but was not able to hold it.
6:20, 6:26, 6:40,6:33,6:46,6:36, 0.35@6:22
I'm not sure if the 3rd mile I lost motivation or just couldn't hold it, very hard to tell sometimes.
Neil C. was there and I focused on keeping him in sight for a while but he was running strong and continued to pull away. By the sixth mile I felt done and felt like jogging the rest. However, a woman in black and purple passed me and I decided to keep the pressure on her hoping that it would be a benefit to both of us and I think it worked.
Fun to see lots of familiar faces and very grateful for Renee to be the driver and warming up before the race.
