Notes
Emerald city 8k - 1st xc race of the season
Went out as planned, maybe a little hot on mile one, but the soft ground (rained the night before) and hills of woodland park added up quickly. Mile 4 hurt and hurt bad. I had a seattle run club guy on my shoulder for the last half mile and when he made his move I couldnt let it happen. i put in a healthy kick - which felt great - but if I could kick that hard, I should have worked harder in the slow mile 4. Pretty humbling but I'm excited to get back at it and attack a nicer course with a little more strategy/experience.
