Had to really rush to get to the startline and warm up; CC was late getting ready. It seems like every year I do the Turkey Tea there's something funky delaying the start.

So I ran a 1 second PB (good) but I came in third (bad). I lost contact with the top two guys, DF and MG, somewhere in the first 500m. I should have fought harder to stay with them because I had a lot left over the last 2k, which are almost completely downhill.

Every time I made a move to get nearer to MG, he seemed to be making the same surges about 20 m ahead of me. Well, I guess that's what happens when you're not fully prepared for a race. Plus, it was my first and only 10k of the year.

All the same, I did have a lot of fun. And I did feel efficient and strong throughout the race.

On the cool down, myself, Benson and some of the MUN guys ran down the track to Bowering Park and back. We bumped into Triton's own VH, who was telling us about his new house in the area. CF was running with us too, recovering from surgery.
