First real race of the season, it was a little rough. The first 1.2 of this is decently uphill, and I caught myself running a 5:07 at the beginning like a fool. But it did get me away from the crowd and after a half mile I was settled in to a decent pace, got 6:37 on mile 1 and ran a little hot into lactic land for the next .2. But then the downhill came and I cleared it in three minutes or so, and it was just me, the cop, and lots of bicyclists. I had hoped to grab ome sub 5:10 miles but now I remember that I need a 300 foot drop to do that without overheating and all these miles were 100-150. But a few in the 5:20s and a lot in the 5:40s were nice too, and I came around the corner to the uphill homestretch over 4 minutes ahead of the second place guy and well ahead of the course record so mission accomplished :)
