It was hot hot hot today, 78 at the start. I lost about 5 seconds per mile except the last one where I died and got 25 seconds slower. Splits were 4:55 (in front for a tiny time), 5:21 (got passed by Connor here, finally got to meet him for a 4 seconds), 5:48 (small uphill), 5:38 (back to my old self on South Temple), 5:51 (uh oh), 6:14 (dying on the uphill). Smoked the masters and would have gotten the 30 year old divisions too except that I couldn't quite catch Iron Wolf at the end. Too cool if that is his real name :)

Slowing 25 seconds that last mile is kind of to be expected.
