Comments:

About 10 lbs over last 10k race, about the same volume but no high intensity. Tried to hold 3:55 for the whole thing, but the couple steep hills killed the avg. Ah well, can't pr every time.

What limited your ability to perform faster:

Weight, training.


Event comments:

This race attracts the local fast buggers. If I'd done the running room 10k I'd have been 4th overall. Shows it's all about who shows up. :)
