Comments:

OMG! I set a huge PR! I'm so amazed. I was skeptical when, around the 2.5k mark when I calculated that I could finish in about 1:08, and was sure that I was doing the math wrong. Then, when I hit the 5k mark at exactly 34:00, I was shocked.

I pushed harder for the last half, thinking I was probably slowing down, and I really wanted to come in under 1:10, and closer to 1:08. Well, when I got to the finish, and say 1:07, I nearly choked. I thought, 'that's just a mistake.' But then I looked at my watch.
What would you do differently?:

Nothing. This was a perfect race.
Post race
Warm down:

Went immediately to the green houses, as I had to pee very badly.

Then I just walked around a bit. I could feel my legs getting sore and I wanted to walk em out a bit.



What limited your ability to perform faster:

Nothing that I know of.

Event comments:

I like this race.

nice job on the PR and way to do a negative split on this race, esp. with that uphill stretch at the end.

Great job on the run! Maybe we can train together prior to Vineman 70.3, would be nice to have some company for a change.
