  • Comments: gender rank 422 of 2481 started manual laps at mile 3 when realized autolap was a bit off - HRM recorded distance at 12:48 miles would liked to have electrolyte option at each aid station instead of every other one Started to feel excited around mile 7, thinking I might actually get a new PR, intentionally did not look at watch too much and tried to focus on form and cadence new I was doing pretty good, but in a way it was nice not to have too much knowledge of where I was, but who knows if that might have helped push for that extra :30 to break my PR

  • Comments: Several people reported that they were stopped by the police to allow traffic to pass. At one point I thought that was going to happen to me, but I luckily got by without any delays. This was the first year for this race in Oregon and I had a great time. Hopefully, I'll get to do it again. In the end, I PR'd but only by 23 seconds. But based on the hilly course, I consider that a victory. 1 8:11 2 8:16 3 8:28 4 8:35 5 9:07 6 8:44 7 9:05 8 8:25 9 8:45 10 8:41 11 8:52 12 8:17 13 8:22 14 8:22
