| Got in late last night and decided to do this race with my family in my hometown. Wouldn't think this race would be so competitive. At the start I got crammed behind a bunch of 12 year olds. The start was nuts. Sharp 90 degree turn 200 meters in. A couple of the little kids who sprinted out went down because the got scared of the sharp turn and stopped right in front of people motoring around the turn. I felt bad. This race a tough course 220 ft gain over 2 miles and 190 ft loss for the last mile at 7000' elevation. At the mile I was in 15th place and was behind a middle school who went out way fast and died hard. By the mile and a half mark I was in 7th and there I stayed. Missed my splits but ran a 4:54 for the last 1.1 miles. Of the guys who beat me, there were 3 Boulder Running Company Pros, a Brooks runner and a friend who qualifed for the 2012 Marathon trials and the kid who just got 2nd at the NCAA D2 XC Championships last Saturday from Western State. He won the race in a full on Flash (the superhero) costume. He ran 15:27 and 4:25 his last mile. Fun race over 3400 people in the race. The finish was running next to the people still walking the first mile. Lots of cheers and high fives. Would for sure do the race again.
After dinner, and a nap I went for an easy 3 mile run at my grandparents
