ran this as a tempo of sorts. it is a fairly tough loop course with hills. all the high school kids in the valley were allowed to run as a "training run" and there was a pack of really fast high school kids who did the 10K, the field was really loaded. the winner was ahigh school kid I whose name I can;t remember who ran 32:20 ish. pretty impressive on that course, and edging Jerrell by a few seconds.I ran the first 2.5 miles with Carol R before my legs gave out and I suffered the last 3.7 miles. She always chides me for going out too fast in races so today she ran the first mile in 5:45. that pretty much destroyed me right there.I even got beat by a high school girl from mountain crest. oh well. it was fun. i guess. |
