Notes

3 mile: 18:42 (6:14)--first mile like 6:02 downhill, crazy start

6 mile: 36:48 / 18:06 (6:02)--downhill from mile 4-6, some sub 6's

9 mile: 54:47 / 17:59 (6:00)--downhill to flat, along water, mile 8 5:51

12 mile: 1:13:37 / 18:50 (6:17)--left at mile 9 then all into the wind

13.1 mile: 1:20:33 / 6:56 (6:15)--uphill at 12 miles then whatever was left...

Offiicially, 1:20:35 probably more like 1:20:28--weird start, I was too deep in the pack. Really about what I expected. Thought there was an outside chance of going sub 1:20 today but the headwind from miles 9 on just killed any chance of that. Really tough finish but a solid effort. Had several people drafting off me through 10, 11 and 12, one guy actually thanked me for the ride after I outkicked him.

Good race and more importantly great workout on the road to Boston. Saw Dan Vassallo, who finished 7th, after and talked with him for a while--good to catch up.
