Notes

Greg Norman started this race. Not such a good race, did not make any of my 3 goals although I actually thought I ran pretty well. I had 13:07 on my watch just after 2 and was feeling pretty good. Nolan got to me at around .75 and we basically ran neck and neck to about 2.5, where I inched ahead. Then I thought we were approaching the last turn and I picked it up, but I was wrong, had another .2 to do or so. backed off temporarily then I thought I nailed the last .15 after the last turn but not so much. Nolan stepped in front of me just at the line to beat me by a 1/2 second. I had no idea he was even there. If I knew he was, I would not have let it happen as I was not going all out to the finish thinking he was 10-15 secs behind me. 6th in ag again, what the f. mapping the course gets 3.16 for 6:30 pace. Good times pre race with tommy, laurel and the Klock family.

The plus side is that it seems I ran pretty even splits and took 1:30 off my last 5k this year. Did not have much in the tank at the end. I gotta think this training cycle is wearing me down. For all the miles and speed work I've put in, I would think i should be much faster.
