Notes
garmin tells the story much better. i can't stomach what i am seeing here and it kills me to fix it. maybe that's why my times always suck here? anyways.
floored it, led the race till turn 1. it starts at turn 11 so that's almost half the oval. felt ok to. it was hot of course but....nothin. people are passing. look down - under 7- keep it under 7. good girl. mile 3, 2nd time around turns 3-4 and 6-7 got up to 8:30's - fucka! turn 9 comes down and i see some women that passed me at mile 1. i'm gaining and she looks like she's.....wow that's a strange way of going. she looks like she running around something. oh goodie here is my sucka pass moment. turn 11 i'm right on her ass. turn 12 i pull up beside her on the left. she looks over and boom! she is gone. like 2 car lengths while i was blinking. i look down and i think garmin said 6:03. what the? i was so impressed i let her go (not that i could do anything anyways). i'm watchin her as we near the line and like holy shit, she's all over the place. she totally misses the shute. some guy ran out to direct her back as i pulled in and it's good he did cause she almost went down. i yell over to some other guys and tell them she was before me so that didn't eff everything up. i then go through, get water and feel sorry for myself at such a pathetic performance. walk over to chris and tell him i got smoked by some women and he points and says that women with the ambulance? uh -oh. i walk over to her as they put her on a stretcha and say you got me lady! good job you got me! (clearly she was out of it). as i walk away i'm thinkin i hope it was worth it. they pack her up and leave. so that was all very interesting. oh and the pizza cheese was quite tasty. why do i have the feelin i'm gonna be up all night?
mta - course pr and almost 2 minutes better than last year in similar cond....for what it's worth.
