Notes

Another great year at the area's best race of the summer. Personal best for me in the 5k although the dream of sub 19 will have to wait. Terrific time at the Hoenig after party. Great steak tips! Thank you both for all the effort in throwing an awesome party.Thanks to Bob also for doing such an amazing job of putting a race together.

UPDATE: I'm told I need to give a play-by-play of this race. Sorry, there's no story here. Running alone for most of this race, couldn't catch the guy that was 20 seconds in front of me and once I passed the 2nd place female there was no one near me. Too bad because I might have benefited from having someone to race.

Wow, sub 19 a definite possibility. Nice run. Sorry I missed it and the after party.

Wish I could have put some pressure on you, Egad. But you're too fast for this old guy. I did benefit from trying to stay up with you and the 2d place female. I expected you to start fast based on your last race splits. So I planned to follow suit. Then she passed us both. But we sped up the last mile, and she didn't. At least that's my take. Congrats on a new PR. Now go get that sub-19! (You've gotta break 18:38 for bragging rights.)

Egad

Yes, I was surprised when she passed me and started to separate. Apparently she went out too fast (maybe we all did). I needed a 6 flat on the last mile to get the sub 19 but never really looked at my watch for that mile so I wasn't sure where I was. Hard to believe I couldn't accomplish when the whole mile is donwhill. In retrospect, what I really needed was you there beside me for the push. Thanks for the congrats all but I don't expect to run another 5k anytime too soon. 18:38-wow.
