Notes
I wanted to run sub-16, but instead I fell apart by going out too hard. I managed to outsprint TJ down the last hill and take him by 4 seconds, though, which was nice. My first 2 kilometers were both spot on in 3:12, but I missed the third kilometer. At the 4th kilometer I was at 13:18 (31 seconds off pace). At the first mile I was 5 seconds fast in 5:04, so I knew that over the second half of kilometer 2 I had lost quite a bit of time. That turned into a 10 second deficit at mile 2 (10:28) and I did not look for my mile 3 split. I did not even see the mile 3 marker; I was going all out at that point.
I ran a 1 second season PR, so while disappointing (and a failure) at least I had a good race.
