Notes
Cool morning and no warm up as this is the most I've run in a week in a long time. Start behind 7:30 pacer, but caught up at 3 miles. Next mile felt fast for pace but stuck with her and then she announced, "oh sorry! We just ran that mile 20 seconds fast." I would have slowed down but didn't want to loose my rhythm and stuck with it. Ran with 3 guys for a bit, but they dropped off and focused on finishing steady. Starting feeling it the last 1/2 mile but it's the best I've felt in a very, long time. Cross the finish line and WHAT?! Huge, shiny medal!! Fantastic!
