Bethany and I got the American Flyers Race Pacers ready and organized before the race and lined up. Went to the start. Didn't recognize anyone. I saw my Pearl Izumi team mate. He ended up running amazing today. He took second overall ahead of me. It was a nice and sunny day!! A bit cold at the start but warmed up quick. I had a few runners with me to mile 7 which are the uphill miles. As soon as it dropped I could finally get my legs to turnover. I was trying to keep my mind from wandering so I started thinking about the last 10k and used kilometers and meters instead of miles. It went by quicker figuring out how many meters I had left instead of miles. When I am running my mind races.  So when I am by myself I start looking at my watch more and getting bored. Doing games like this in my head keeps me from fading. At the finish I watched the pacers come in on their times and the reactions of those runners they helped stay on pace. I know I say this every time that this is my fuel my passion. I saw Kelli and Bill pace 1:45 and brought the same guy in as they have the last 3 years. This was their 4th year. How incredible was that you ask? Ask any other pace group in the nation. I will fight you if you find one! 😜 :)
