Comments:

Started out hot and just held on. Knew for sub-17 I needed 5:26/mi, but just couldn't quite get there. Was hard enough holding this pace with no one around me. Tried to pretend I was racing the lead bike, but didn't quite work to get that extra motivation. Still a huge PR, and best part is I got the break the tape!

Fun little local race. Just water and a granola bar at the finish, but I wasn't expecting much.
