Comments:
Warm and humid. Plan was to go out hard then take it easy coming down the big hill. Could see the leaders for the first mile or so. Got up the big hill much easier than last year. Felt stronger than last year in the gorge on the way back. Started to really tire though when I got to the road again. Walked for part of the big hill before it meets back with the road. Only time I walked. Back and forth with one guy who ended up beating me. Ended up running much better than I had expected. Pretty sore after. Tweaked either R IT band or R arch, can't remember which.
