Started with Dud and Ken near the back. We kept an ok pace but I was really feeling the volume from the past couple weeks so my legs were definitely heavy. Stayed with them for the first couple miles until the first big downhill. I'm good going down hills and actually have a hard time going slow down them. I passed 10 or so people and the leg turnover was good. By the time I got to the bottom I figured I'd keep that up and see what I could do. Probably passed at least 30 people just on the downhills.

It's a hilly course. I hit a 4:25 pace at the bottom of two different hills. At the top of the worst one, my pace was 14:35. Many people end up walking on that one.

Slower than last year, but I came into it with tired legs, so not surprising.
