Comments:

Fast first mile at 7:31. Probably went out slightly fast. Could not get the mile splits as the mile 2 marker was set at 2k. Mile 2 was probably in the area of 8:10. Last mile was a bit faster.

14/25 in LE division. 2nd in the team race.

Weight

Event comments:

This was a PR for me. Time dropped 30 seconds in 1 month. Need to drop more weight as I can definately feel the weight slowing me down at 1.5 miles or so. I will take the time!
