Comments:

First time running Bloomsday, or this distance period. Fell in behind a group of Gonzaga ROTC cadets, enjoyed them singing cadence. They carried me quite aways, until they dropped me after the 3 mile mark... Kept hearing about Doomsday hill - enjoyed putting my head down and working up it. First time at this distance, and I made sure I didn't walk any of it. Enjoyed my day.
Post race
Warm down:
