Mr. Garmin took a little extra time to get started so I didn't get the full time, but when it came to it showed I was closer to 5 minute pace than 6 minute pace. Probably a bad idea if I have to run 32 miles in 24 hours. So I calmed down and settled into a pace just under 6 and kept chugging along, I was alone for the whole leg until I caught my first guy meters from the finish. I managed to make up a lot of the gap on the other Ultra team that we were battling with.
Also, Starting with the fast teams was awesome. So much less crowded and really didn't hit the mass of people till about exchange 18 which was a welcome change from last year.
