Comments:
Last race of the season downtown Plymouth, absolutely freezing! Wore gloves to warm up but ditched them for race. Warm up felt tight, heavy legs, fingers never melted! Tried to stay calm in first mile but legs were pretty tight due to cold, second mile felt strong and aware of easier flatter course but definitely feeling the effort of maintaining the pace, last mile trying to keep it fast and kicked in last turn behind Cabby's but couldn't get by gaggle of women. So glad to see time!!! Hoping to beat 24 and did as well as second fasted time of the year. Splits were 7:34, 7:56 and 7:54. At least last mile was faster then second if only by a smidge. No cool down, waiting around for an hour and half for times and awards but just missed out on third by 3 seconds! Overall a great season, much improved from last year!!!
