Had a nice time pacing this race with Kimi. Perfect weather and a fun although challenging course. I was glad we were pacing and not racing. My ultra training book says I need to get used to running slower than I'm used to so this run and Boston in 9 days with lots of 10 min miles should be just dandy. The slower pace makes my ornery hamstrings happy too so that's nice.

We had a couple runners stay with most of the way and sometimes a few others would join in. I think most of them finished 30s or so ahead of us. Nice!

You're going have to enlighten me on how to train for ultras. Good luck with the hammy.

Terry I have a special ultra training plan just for you.... Make sure to run low mileage, do lots of sprints and short fast intervals on the track, don't worry about doing any long runs especially on trails, don't worry about drinking during the race. Do all of that and you'll probably STILL beat me!
