Notes

Great course, flat for the first 3 and then rolling through scenic Granby. I kept a very steady 6:30 pace with the first female, Alison? The first little hill didn't slow me at all, but I dropped the attractive young lady and gained on John D. Mile 4 was only a couple seconds above 6:30. I caught John D. and next came Spencer B. It would be nice to race him and go for the win, but not today. He pulled his usual sprint in the last half mile to gain a couple places, and to be honest I didn't keep up my pace for that last half mile. He and I hung tight through mile 5.75 though. I was feeling a couple blisters and sure enough, my left index toe and right foot on the ball behind that toe had a deep one. I was wearing the lightweight trail shoes and feeling the pavement though it didn't hurt. Very confident in these shoes for Washington. Excellent little endurance run looking foward to Washington, 10k PR.
