9 mile warm up (three laps on the course) then the race was the prettiest. Just never got a race mentality going. Been in a tired fog all week. Just kinda settled for 2nd. Got done and never felt tired which is sad. I hope I feel better by next week. I got home and slept for 2+ hours despite getting a very good night's sleep.
