did the one mile predicition run! I won!!

What limited your ability to perform faster:

It was my fastest time in this event, so I'm not sure I could have ran it anyfaster, just more training and time.

Event comments:

This is a new management team at the Ymca....so they are just getting organized with racing. Before them I don't think there were many races/ events being organized so kudos to them!
