Notes
This day belongs to Chris. She came in with a plan to run aggressively and did so right from the start. Our other carpool buddy, Frank, ran with her the entire race. Fast at the start and then she ate up her competition including "Black Shirt" girl who thought for sure that she had won. Instead, it was Chris with 1st place AG in 10 year category (not 5 year).
I gave this everything I had today and happy with the result. 11 miles of MP and then tried to close on the speedy Chris and her tall knight, Frank. To no avail.
10 Year age groups are tough when you are at or near the end. I would have been 4th in 55 to 59 group.
