Comments:
So, Spartan Invite was today and it honestly went a lot better than last year. Unfortunately for this race, I was still suffering from RVP-Sculli Plague 2017, but I ended up having a solid race. I ran 29:02 for the 8K and it felt really easy. So maybe I can go a minute or so faster next time. For most of the race, I was smiling and waving to people while never truly feeling like I was pushing it until the very end, so hey I guess that's not bad.
Shoutout to Paolo for being a fucking animal.
And yeah, my foot hurt a bit after the race but I'll just try to get to through that. Mileage-wise, I'm just gonna call this week a wash and start fresh next week. I'll probably take tomorrow off and start again Sunday.
