Notes

out ok w/ a group of about 5 then at mile 5 my shoes came untied. Stopped to tie then figured I should just check the other one. Lost about 45 seconds on the group and was running alone. Another guy came up around mile 8 and I just sat on him through 13. At the HM turnaround he asked what my goal for the race was. I figured that was a good time to suggest alternating miles into the wind and see if we could make up some time. Alternated miles from 13 to 19 and then he slowed a bit so took the lead. Felt really good the whole time and was conservative w/ the pace. At mile 22 I took off and ran 5:20-5:21 for the last 4 miles and then had a crappy effort in the stadium. Half-marathoners were finishing and weaving around the track and really couldn't sprint around them. Ran 1:14:30-1:13:30 splits. Didn't keep any other splits and didn't keep any cumulative time during the race. I think the clock splits were:

10-56:30

20-1:53:xx
