Notes
Tipp Hill Shamrock 4-miler. Really happy with how this race turned out. Before, I was thinking I would be able to run between 6:00 and 6:10 pace on a good day. Got out at what felt like a very easy pace, but with the screaming downhill, ended up being a 5:44. Worked on just catching people for the last three miles (ended up getting 26!). Caught Jeremy in the second mile and tried to get him to come with me, but pulled away shortly before mile 3. That stretch was a huge uphill, but I was still feeling pretty good and passing people. Once we turned back into the park, I knew we only had a half mile or so, and put in a huge push. Ended up catching Trisha with about 400m to go and ended with my fastest mile of the day. Very excited to know I can still run under 6:00 pace for a hilly 4-mile race, and finish strong. This is encouraging.
