Thanks Tech.

I was acctually thinking that too when I finished and was talking to AIMS. It wasnt too long ago when my goal was an hour. But it was just the shape my body was in while I was running. I was pushing it a little too hard. But thank you and hopefully my butt gets in gear.

Big D,

sub-60 is still a good time. you've been sick, and it obviously took a toll on your body. even still, great race! it was good to see you again. there will be more races. in the mean time, keep training.
