under a rock
#2867
At the Bradbury Breaker, a 9 mile trail race at Bradbury Mountain, there's a steep climb to the summit from the base at about 6.75 miles. In the last 2.25 miles, I managed to turn a 10 or 20 second lead into a 2 minute lead over a guy that tried running the climb while I walked it. I had some energy left at the top. He didn't. 'Nuff said.

I did a run/walk/run strategy in my last marathon and managed to run 2:50 and change. It annoyed the guy that finished 20 seconds ahead of me since he knew I was running half the mileage he was going into the race.
