Notes
Strongest one yet. Sagged around 22 but very happy with parts and energy level throughout. Good kick to end it.
Started in the 3:50 group with plan to take it slow until 3:55 group caught up. First 5k was too fast but finally settled in with the right group. Pacer sped up leading to water stops,took a few steps while drinking,then went slow until picking up the pace after.Short guy with no flag was tough to spot in the crowd. Hung right with him until ~22 then spent too much time under a couple of hoses. Realized sub 4 was in danger so poured on what was left. The 4hr group never caught me but must have been breathing down my neck.
Smiled almost all of the way .Laughed often. Crowd support was incredible. Slapped my heart and looked at Aiden's name for strength.
What a run.
