Notes
Fall Classic.
Was hoping for 1:35:00 since I have done no dedicated training for this and my legs have felt heavy ever since Vermont. Figured I would go out a bit easy and if I had anything left in the last 4k I would push the pace a bit, so that's how it went down.
I was shoulder to shoulder with a young guy (age group 01-19) for most of the race, we didn't talk, he was huffing and puffing more than I was so I was interested to see how the last 4k would go. I dropped the hammer at 17k and he couldn't keep up, I ended up beating him by about a minute. A great ego boost!
Finished in 1:30:45 feeling good. I could have definitely pushed sub 1:30:00 if I had some more confidence going in.
