good race today. despite the time delay, didn't feel any different. started out very conservative, and the swarms of runners made it hard to move quickly. came through 1mi in 5:07 (aiming for 5-) and just worked from there. pretty consistent splits, and just kept passing people. felt great. still felt good coming through 6k, though the groups had thinned out quite a bit. reeled in some manchester guys by 7k, and started to kick, even though i thought i was getting tired. i was. but still had a good kick, and felt really good about it. passed a couple more in the finish chute. turns out i got 8th. pretty sweet.
very happy with today's performance for myself and the team. I think we're in a good place now, and can improve each meet this year. though we didn't beat manchester, with some improvement in our 4&5 runners, and others, i think we should be able to beat them. calvin also looks weak up front, but can't be discounted.
