Notes
28:11 8km Race @Huron Meadows. Got out pretty fast, but not ridiculously so. Dangled behind Sam, Nick and LB for the first mile before they started to drift away. First 2 miles were pretty quick, but I don't know the splits, probably ~5:25 according to my watch. Shit got hilly on the lake loop, saw flag shorts and got my ass into gear, passed him about 3 miles in, but he kept surging back to me and I didn't drop him until ~4 miles in. I had also been in sight of LB the entire lake loop and I tried my best to reel him in, but it never really happened and his lead stayed pretty static from mile 2 on. Pushed myself to maintain solid effort the last mile, but I didn't really realize how quick the finish was coming up so in retrospect I probably should have started kicking ~200m farther out. Decent kick, but I was fairly alone so not great. Solid day, PRed by almost 2 minutes, but MC5 barely counts. Decent course, but certainly slower than Spartan. The sandy hills (and all the hills for that matter) really took something out of me. Ready for a supposedly very flat course at regionals.
