The pain that hurts the worse is the imagined pain. One of the most difficult arts of racing is learning to ignore the imagined pain and just live with the present pain (which is always bearable.) - Jeff

Not at it at all.
Well, I did okay! Well, not as fast as I would have liked, but I felt fine through the whole run. I ended up going for an 8-miler on Thursday night, very slow and ran 20 minutes on Friday evening, slow again. I think that I was a little under-trained for this race. It would have been better to do more runs longer than 15k in order to feel comfortable in a 15k. Thanks for everyone's advice!
First or last...it's the same finish line
