Here is my racing report.  It was a warm morning on the hill near central.  All the stars were there and the Big guns lined up. Dave, Aaron, Clyde, James, Steve, Logan. Mike and I Agreed to go out together  and take it easy until after Veyo.  1. 6.52  2. 6.44 3. 6.38 4. 6.27 5. 6.29 6. 6.24 7.6.26 8. 7.26  feeling tired.  9. 7.11 pushing up incline 10.7.05 11. 7.22 12. 7.06 13.6.50 14. 7.02 15. 6.50 16.6.29 17.6.48  18.  6.57 19. 7.16  20. 7.16       21. 6.40 22. 7.15  23.6.59  24. 7.08 25. 7.25  26.7.58. 

Looking at this  I lost concentration the last 5 miles.   And this is where I missed my sub three.  

I was  feeling good and let Mike go  around mile 8. I should of stayed with him. he was about 200 yards ahead of me  but I decided to stay behind.  I seen Logan and I wanted to stop and make sure he was ok.  But it looked like he was being taken care of.   Then I ran into Dustin  about a mile before the ledges.  He ran with me for a while until the ledges.  Mike was not to far ahead.    I caught up to Mike on the corner of the Diagonal  He was in pain and was limping!   I felt pretty bad.  I did not want to leave him.  At this point I knew the Sub three was out of range  so I slowed down a little and coasted in.   This is the best time I have had for a couple of years  so I am not to disappointed.  I still think that sub three is in reach.   Thanks to the cheering crowd and my friends.  Mike would have had a 2:57  or less if it were not for his injury.    The man can flat out fly and I am at aw when I think of how much pain he went through to just finish this marathon.
