Notes:I took the lead within about 10 feet of the race starting, and within about 400 meters I could start to feel yesterday's 5k. I didn't want my vision blocked, though, so I kept up the effort and led the race almost from start to finish. Patrick Cote was right behind me most of the race, passed me briefly at the aid station, then passed me for about a quarter to a half mile coming down the snowmobile trail. I hauled ass to catch back up, and then controlled my breathing as I came up on him to make him think that I was not working very hard and to break him. I thought that he was pretty close to me after that, but I won by over 20 seconds so he must have given up at some point.

It was a lot of fun running those trails that fast. I twisted my ankle once, but kept running on it and it didn't start to swell until afterwards. Never did a cool down; I grabbed my camera and photographed finishers after I got done.
