Comments:

Had an awesome day out there. Goal was to run Sub-90 and I paced evenly throughout the race and hit the mark perfectly. I dropped the 1:30 pace group at mile 3 and never looked back.

I moved from about 50th place to 39th in the last 6 miles as I executed my kick which made this race VERY rewarding.
What would you do differently?:

Very even pacing and one of my best executed races ever. At 48, this is my fastest (In terms of VDOT) race I have ever run. Seems like I still have some improvement left before age starts to slow me down.

Event comments:

I last did this race in 2006 and the organization has improved a great deal. Course is very isolated with NO spectator support. (Other than the start and the finish)
