 Run
Comments: Knocked off the first 2 miles in 8:3x...stopped a bit for water after the 2 mile mark...turned the half-way point, mile 3-4 sucked...4-5 felt good, and 5-6 was rockstar (8:24)...and then buzzed it on in. I've never dropped 6 miles at sub-9 minutes. What would you do differently?: Nada. Good race. Maybe if I lost 20 pounds and ran some more, but really, this was rockstar.  Post race
Warm down: Looked for Sugar Daddy at the meetup and couldn't find him, so I went through food tent and to get my bag back. Found Sugar Daddy, called to find Judi's daughters and my girls. Went home. :) Yeah, I'm lame and I suck, but I ran fast. What limited your ability to perform faster: NADA - perfect day - great run...and totally happy with performance. I was looking at this as a B-race, with mary next month, but to PR and feel good - YEAH!!! Event comments: I love the Monument 10K. The bands and fans are awesome. The water is plentiful. The organization is great. I can't say enough good things about this race, especially since they started verifying wave starts this year...I was in a great wave and didn't have to dodge any over-estimating walkers.

You do know how much junk food John, Patti and Rachel fed the Monkeys, don't you? Yeah, they told us.  Actually, Younger Monkey told us (in front of John, Patti, and Rachel) that they fed her sugar. Just sugar. Thankfully they clarified that it was sugar on top of funnel cakes. |

Drove downtown with Sugar Daddy and the monkeys...we were running behind (where I like to be, at least) and had a beast of a time parking. 2x Diet Pepsi and 1x Luna Bar...damn I miss Mojo Bars...this peanut butter recall thing is really pissing me off. But I digress...Found Judi (QueenZipp) and Jen (Artemis) and met Max (Max)...Judi's daughter watched the monkeys while Sugar Daddy and I ran. Whoo whoo.
Zooming to the start line after waiting far too long in the porta-potty line. Saw my "boss" in the line next to ours.
