Comments:
Great day. Broke out and hit 26:18! There is some speculation that the course is 20-40 seconds short, so that would put my actual 8k time anywhere from 26:38-26:58. Still, a gigantic PR (seems to be at least 50 seconds) to go from 27:49 to something sub 27. Frustrating to not know for sure, but still a huge breakthrough day and my best collegiate race by far. Ran well and stuck with Nat longer than usual. Lost focus a bit from 3.5-4.5 miles so I can still improve significantly. I think a reasonable goal for Wooster is low 27's. Really happy with the race.Place wise I went from 224 last year to 110 this year.


Edit:
Official word is the course was ~103 meters short, so I adjusted that below. This equates to a 26:38 8k which is a PR by 1 minute and 11 seconds!
