• Comments: I love this race. it's so cool running through the Baltimore neighborhoods and I got to run by my own house this time. I'm not sure if I'm cut out for this distance. I think there's a weekly mileage threshold necessary to get where I can be and my body just won't hack that. I think there was also some expectation management that I need to address going forward; I clearly went out too fast and faded. I'm great at pacing shorter distances but haven't figured this one out yet. That said, I'm thrilled that I was able to race this again. A little disappointed for sure but not every race can be perfect.
