Herriman race. A mixture of fun and terrible. There were a lot of slippery and deep muddy parts.. It felt weird to lead and I didn't know if I was going at a good pace.. when I heard my mile splits, it was around 7:30 pace and that didn't sound good at all! But it was really muddy and hilly. The mutha cussa was as terrible but the worst part is after the hill.. I felt like a sloth and my feet wouldn't pick up.. The hardest part was the last 800ish for sure. Pretty sure I could've stepped it up but it was just a relief to have finished. I was just happy that I didn't let myself give up and let the 2nd girl pass me.. plus that'd destroy my ounce of confidence. happy to be done but excited for future races now that I've finished probably the hardest course of my life.
