AM: Run with Luda & Reptar before back to Buffalo, Corporate Challenge tonight!

PM: Wanted to go for the win tonight, so that's what I did, stuck behind the eventual winner and hit the first mile in 5:00 so pretty quick.  The paced slowed and he started pulling away, but I still found myself in second place as I tried to grab water to throw on my head I only managed to spill water on the girl holding it, I zoomed down to the circle in front of Millard Fillmore Hospital and made the turn around then hit the 2 mile in 5:20.  Jon French then caught up to me and we raced neck and neck for the last part of the race, I heard a lot of the people from the Try-it/Labatt team cheering me on and hit mile 3 in 5:09, we made a few turns and I tried to pick it up, but Jon unleashed a wicked kick and put 5 seconds on me in the last straight.  Got third, happy to finally crack the top 5, but only 20 seconds behind first which is encouraging.

Nice race - way to just go for it. Gotta do that sometimes.
