Happy New Year! I haven't missed a New Years morning race since I started running in May 2003 and I can't wait to drag my tired butt to the start line again to begin 2012 right. I'm praying for everyone here to have a fast, fun, and injury free year. Carpe Viam

Perfect conditions for a race this morning! 38°, clear skies and 1mph wind. I had a good race considering I ignored my garmin and just ran at a pace that "felt" fast enough to PR. I was a little disappointed when I saw 19 on the clock as I approached the finish line. I could have fixed that by training harder or racing harder, or maybe just paying attention to my stupid watch. Garmin time was 19:34 and even though my time wasn't listed on the results, they had me at 15th overall, 2nd in my AG and 1st in my AG for the series since Scott took first today in our AG and he's not doing the whole series.
