Notes
Went out with another guy pretty hard. Got through the single track uphill section to the dirt road then lit it rip downhill during the second mile (5:39)...with no speedwork it was tougher than it should have been for sure. Gotta get some speed in over the next month...Endurance is there speed is lacking. Once on the single track about 2.5ish I lost contact with the leader and could never real him in again. He managed to only finish about 30 seconds ahead of me by the time it was said and done. Baxter Outdoors did pretty good. It would have been smart to have a volunteer at the one S-turn crossing as I heard a few folks managed to get lost there. Glad I ran the course a few times in preparation of the event. 2nd OA. Good Baxter Brew post race, and some Baxter Ourdoors swag (bandana, beer can with race logo on it).
